Abstract: |
The evaluation was undertaken on the site of a proposed bungalow and access road. Fifteen pieces of worked flint (probably Mesolithic in date) were obtained from the topsoil, a buried cultivation soil and the fill of a feature interpreted as natural tree hollow. All indicated low level prehistoric activity in the area and may have been contemporary with a spot find of flints found in a vegetable plot at Cromer Hall in 1976. No Roman, Saxon, medieval or post-medieval features were identified on the site during the evaluation work. Residual sherds of medieval pottery found were probably derived from manuring practices and not disturbed in situ archaeological features. [Au] |
