Abstract:
This report presents the results of an archaeological evaluation carried out on the site of a proposed flood alleviation scheme at Hall Lane, West Winch, Norfolk, during which a medieval furrow and two undated pits were discovered. The presence and depth of the subsoil, the presence of ridge and furrow cropmarks in aerial photographs and the discovery of a furrow in two of the trenches prove that this area was under some form of open-field cultivation during the medieval period. Finds of 12th-14th-century pottery within the topsoil were probably a result of manuring the open field. The furrow in Trenches 2 and 3 also contained a fragment of 12th-14th-century pottery. The two pits in Trench 1 may have predated this subsoil, but they remain undated.
