Abstract:		 In December 2008, Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried out a metal detector survey and an archaeological evaluation of land off Lamsey Lane, Heacham, Norfolk (NGR TF 67617 36403). A residential development is proposed for the site comprising the construction of 24 residential dwellings with associated garages, access and services. The archaeological investigations were carried out to comply with a planning condition (Planning ref: 06/1053/FM). The site had potential for late Iron Age and Romano-British features, predominantly associated with an area of crop marks in fields immediately adjacent to the site (NHER 26833). The evaluation revealed nine features comprising pits, ditches and a gully. Several natural features were also observed. The undated features included a ditch (F1014 Tr.4) which may be associated with the late Iron Age/ Romano-British enclosure based on its alignment. The undated pits largely occurred towards the eastern side of the site also show similar characteristics to Iron Age pits, however they lacked finds. The dating evidence was sparse. An E/W ditch (F1010 Tr.3) contained late post-medieval- early modern CBM and a pit (F1018 Tr. 5) contained a hammerstone and a fragment (1g) of daub. It was considered that features from the adjacent farmstead may have encrouached on to the site. In the event archaeological finds were sparse, and any association of the archaeological features with the known evidence is tentative.
