Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Van Oord to develop an archaeological protocol and undertake a walkover survey for the Bacton Beach Nourishment project, in Norfolk. Aggregate material was dredged from the East Coast licence areas, and therefore there was potential for material dating from the Palaeolithic to the modern period. Dredging work was undertaken in July and August 2019. Eight walkover surveys were undertaken to review material deposited on Bacton Beach. Twelve finds were recovered through the walkover survey or reported through the protocol. Three of the finds comprised flint objects, however all were determined to be natural. Once piece of peat was recovered during the walkover survey and could be from a Pleistocene deposit. Although the remaining objects are not of interest with regards to the palaeogeography of the East Coast, they do provide insight into the maritime uses of the study area through time, including material from vessels (such as sheaves and the remains of an anchor), Second World War munitions, and possible aircraft material.
