Abstract:
The results of archaeological monitoring during the redevelopment of the riverside site of the former Bridge Restaurant, Wroxham. The site is directly adjacent to the Scheduled Monument of Wroxham Bridge (NHER 8425), the core of which is a 17th-century brick structure with stone face work, itself a rebuild of a 16th century bridge. A 19th century building continuous to the north-western side of Wroxham Bridge was demolished, which partly exposed the fabric of the bridge. The function of the demolished building remains uncertain, although it predates the former timber sheds which formed the bulk of the restaurant by as much as a century. The bridge fabric was mostly observed to be of 19th century brick, with some ashlar (refaced) and modern cement render scored to mimic ashlar joints (which may mimic weathered stone behind). This suggests that this section of the bridge was subject to a significant phase of rebuilding and remedial work in the 19th century, which predated the widening of the bridge in 1897. Just above the waterline earlier bricks and several neat ashlar blocks may be part of either the original early 17th century fabric or relate to 18th century remedial work.
