This collection comprises images, a project brief, and a site plan from an archaeological evaluation carried out by Colchester Archaeological Trust at the former Chambers Bus Depot, Church Square, Bures St Mary, Suffolk, in December 2022. The site is located within the historic core of Bures St Mary, which traces its origins back to the medieval period, and near to a crossing point over the River Stour which has been in use since at least the 16th century. Excavations at the site revealed two pits and three ditches dating to the medieval or post-medieval periods, and a further pit of post-medieval date, indicating occupation here during these periods, as well as a 19th-century pit.
