Abstract: |
An evaluation by trial trench of land proposed for a Manège within an open field at 'The Stables' off Church Road, Bergh Apton, Norfolk. A single 1.8m by 20m evaluation trench was excavated down to natural geology with no archaeological features revealed. A small assemblage of finds was collected from the subsoil, which appears to have been well mixed through 19th century ploughing. The finds include late post-medieval buttons, metal working debris, a possible fragment from a Romano-British fastener or harness fitting, two abraded sherds of Romano-British pottery and an assemblage of Late Bronze Age worked flint - which includes an exhausted core and a side-scraper. The finds are consistent with residual evidence for both prehistoric and Romano-British activity in the general area of the site. A focus of Romano-British activity in the form of a possible high status farm or villa is known to be located c. 185m to the south east and a Bronze Age cremation burial was discovered in a similar location. |
