Professor Ian Baxter, Amanda Bond and Amy Ruston using a copy of the 1601 map

The Suffolk Record Office kindly supplied us with a copy of the 1601 map of Sutton Hoo and the Deben. Members of the Suffolk Heritage Forum were able to compare the plan with the topography of the Sutton Hoo burial site from the temporary viewing platform.
