Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief was conducted on the excavation of foundation trenches ahead of construction of three residential buildings at Zipfel's Court, Norwich. To the south of the site the monitoring works recorded a single post-medieval pit filled with peat ash and overlain by a mortar floor. Two post-medieval walls lay in close proximity to this floor, at least one of which was aligned east-west. A thick layer of dumped garden soil covered both the walls and the floor and extended across almost the whole development area. To the north, two 19th-century brick cellars cut through this deposit; both were filled with modern demolition material. It would seem that the area to the east of Zipfel's Court remained as open ground at the rear of street-facing tenements until the post-medieval period, when pressure for space led to the construction of significant ancillary buildings. This development continued into the later 19th century with the construction of the recently demolished warehouse.
