Abstract: |
NPS Archaeology was commissioned by Birdsall, Swash and Blackman Ltd to carry out archaeological monitoring of the excavation of water gullies, drain-runs, inspection pits and a soak-away on the north side of St Peter's church, Ferry Road, Carleton St Peter, Norfolk (TG 33970 02285). Three graves and a deposit of long bones-probably in a grave backfill-were recorded. In situ burials were exposed in one of the inspection pits and in the soak-away; groundworks elsewhere were insufficiently deep to reach the level of inhumations. Human bone located in the soak-away was poorly preserved and may have been medieval or earlier in date. All of the burials appeared to be on broadly the same alignment as the church. A small number of unstratified finds were collected, including medieval brick and floor tile fragments, which may have been removed from the church interior during 19th-century renovations. One complete square floor tile from Flanders was found, which dates to the 14th-15th century. |
