Abstract: |
The evaluation revealed a broad scatter of prehistoric features and palaeochannels were seen in the trenches immediately south of Dodderman Way. There was a marked concentration of prehistoric features in trench 11. Many of these contained worked flint of Neolithic type. A considerable assemblage of Neolithic worked flint was recovered from the development area as a whole. A 'hollow way' infilled with chalky material was recorded in trenches 28 and 29. This lay on the line of the routeway between the medieval villages of Bowthorpe and Colney via a ford over the Rover Yare. No date was established for the infilling, although it seemed likely on historical and topographical grounds that the routeway was medieval in origin. [Au] |
