Abstract:
The excavation revealed the north-east corner of a large enclosure ditch for a previously unknown Romano-British occupation site. The upper fills comprised of a series of dumped deposits containing relatively large quantities of butchered animal bone and possible waste from metalworking in the form of fired clay fragments, perhaps daub from a deconstructed hearth. Pottery and coins collected from the ditch currently suggest a late 3rd to 4th century date for occupation. The enclosure ditch truncated two earlier ditches, at least one of which may relate to earlier Romano-British activity at the site. A surprise discovery was made of prehistoric activity in the form of a small number of features, including the base of a shallow pit and the terminus of a ditch. Worked flints collected from the site include a transverse 'chisel-shaped' arrow head and two scrapers of likely Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age date. Most significantly, an assemblage of Late Neolithic pottery was recovered, mainly from a cluster of finds in the lower subsoil. The majority of the assemblage is Later Neolithic Peterborough Ware which is rare in Norfolk, with this assemblage representing one of the largest yet found in the county.
