Abstract:		 The results of archaeological monitoring of a development of three residential homes on a former paddock field off St Andrew's Lane, Congham. The development plot lies in an area where extensive evidence for long term occupation activity of Roman to medieval periods has been recorded through surface finds scatters. excavation. The groundworks revealed Late Saxon to medieval activity at the western edge of the development plot. The subsoil here contained Late Saxon and medieval pottery and sealed several features which appear to be primarily of Late Saxon date. They include pits, at least one ditch and two tentatively interpreted structural features. Two post-medieval ditches were recorded, both on similar orientations to St Andrew's Lane. One of these ditches matches the existing boundary to the rear of the properties to the east of the site, which is present on late 1800s OS plans and 1946 aerial photographs and appears to have been actively infilled rather than left to silt-up naturally. Residual finds collected from the topsoil across the site included scattered finds of multiple periods, including; pottery of Romano-British, Saxon, Medieval and post-medieval periods, along with a small number of post-medieval to modern metal objects. Noteworthy finds include two fragments of medieval kiln furniture.
