Abstract: |
A rapid identification archaeological fieldwalking survey of 21.5 hectares of felled and still standing plantation woodland on Methwold Warren near Feltwell, Norfolk. This was undertaken in advance of a planned extension to the Feltwell Quarry. The fieldwalking transects undertaken at c.50m intervals revealed possible traces of (now levelled) former warrens or pillow mounds in the form of soil colour/textural changes as well as evidence for a low-level prehistoric presence in the form of burnt stone and flint, calcined flint, and rare worked flint scatters. Traces of ancient (Medieval - Postmedieval?) boundary banks around the warren were also identified, along with a few 2nd WW defences along its western edge. |
