This site overlooks the Orwell, in a topographically favourable location in the vicinity of prehistoric sites, particularly of Palaeolithic date. No objection in principle to development but it will require a condition relating to archaeological investigation attached to any planning consent. A desk-based assessment is recommended in the first instance.

This site affects an area of archaeological interest, on land formerly in the low lying plains of the River Gipping. There is potential for palaeonvironmental remains. The likely site of a medieval watermill at Kettlebaston is indicated by field names and the alignment of the river c.200m upstream. This shows activity in the area. Saxon remains were recorded at IPS395 in a similar topographic location to the PDA, 250m west. No objection in principle but it will require a condition relating to archaeological investigation attached to consent. Desk-based assessment in the first instance will establish impacts of past land use.

This affects an area of high archaeological potential (County Historic Environment Record). A pre-application evaluation (2011) of open areas of the site identified a series of ditches and pits indicative of prehistoric occupation. Extensive remains of archaeological interest have therefore been confirmed across parts of the southern half of the site, with potential for encountering further below ground heritage assets across the remaining areas. The works will cause significant ground disturbance that could damage archaeological deposits that exist. No objection in principle but it will require a condition relating to archaeological investigation attached to consent. Historic buildings should be assessed.

This site is area of archaeological potential, within the hinterland of the Anglo-Saxon and medieval town recorded in the County Historic Environment Record. As a result there is potential for encountering heritage assets of archaeological interest in this area. No objection in principle to development but it will require a condition relating to archaeological investigation attached to any planning consent.

This site lies in an area of international archaeological importance, on the Anglo-Saxon and medieval waterfront of Ipswich (Historic Environment Record IPS 413). This site potentially represents that last surviving section of 'early' waterfront, and may also encounter the remains of bridges dating from at least the 10th century. The site will involve potentially high excavation costs. No objection in principle to development but it will require a condition relating to archaeological investigation attached to any planning consent. Archaeological costs have the potential to be relatively high.

This site lies in an area of international archaeological importance, on the Anglo-Saxon and medieval waterfront of Ipswich (Historic Environment Record IPS 413). Groundworks could involve surviving sections of 'early' waterfront. No objection in principle to development but it will require a condition relating to archaeological investigation attached to any planning consent. Early assessment would be advisable if extensive groundworks are proposed.

Roman, Medieval and Anglo-Saxon finds are recorded in the vicinity of the site area (IPS 093). This option should be subject to archaeological evaluation before a Development Brief is prepared to allow for preservation in situ of any sites of national importance that might be defined (and which are currently unknown).
