Abstract:
In November 2010, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) conducted an archaeological evaluation at 12 River Lane, Norfolk (NGR TF 6345 2067). The evaluation was conducted in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning approval for the construction of housing (Borough of Kings Lynn and West Norfolk Council Planning Ref. 10/01041/F). Roman tile and pottery has been found approximately 300-350m to the north of the site along the Gaywood River (NHER 52930). In the same location a large quantity of Middle Saxon pottery has been found. Several find spots of Early to Middle Saxon metalwork have also been found in this area (NHER 52930, 14673, 5544) suggesting settlement. In the medieval period the Gaywood River was diverted (NHER 28800) whilst the area to the north and west was used for salt production and agriculture. The nearest saltern is some 650m to the north-west (NHER 27909), and ridge and furrow is recorded 600m to the south-west. The map regression shows that the site has been pasture or open ground since 1839 and that there was a field boundary running across, east-west, and a building in the north-east corner. The evaluation revealed a rectangular construction cut which contained 15th-16th century brick and a ditch, a gully and a pit, all undated. A residual 14th - 15th century brick was present in the subsoil.
