Abstract: |
Northamptonshire Archaeology carried out an archaeological evaluation at St Mary's Works, Duke Street, Norwich, in November and December 2007. A total of seventeen trial trenches were excavated. The excavations revealed a consistent pattern across most of the site with medieval rubbish and quarry pits being sealed by a 15th - 16th century homogeneous soil layer possibly representing a former cultivation soil. Buildings of 18th and 19th century date and associated features were cut into these soils which were later truncated by the construction of a shoe factory on the site in 1926. Amongst the finds assemblage a possibly unique bird-shaped pottery lamp or salt, in Grimston Ware, was recovered. |
