Abstract:
Between 29th October 2018 and 4th February 2019, Oxford Archaeology East undertook an excavation on land at Newfound Farm, Cringleford, Norfolk ahead of a proposed residential development. The locations of the excavation areas (Areas 1 and 2) were based on the results of previous stages of evaluation including geophysical survey, fieldwalking and trial trenching. The earliest evidence of activity comprised a scatter of pits and natural sinkholes containing small quantities of Early Neolithic, Late Neolithic and Early Iron Age pottery alongside worked and burnt flint. This adds to the growing body of evidence for utilisation of the Yare valley during the prehistoric period. However, the main phase of activity related to the production of brick/tile and pottery. The former is represented by the remains of at least four early post-medieval brick kilns which had survived to varying degrees, alongside numerous extraction pits and several ditched boundaries. Fragments of tile, brick and pottery had been backfilled into the extraction pits, with the pottery predominantly dating to the 16th-18th centuries. A notable cluster of six intercutting pits located in the far north-eastern corner of Area 1 (close to Newfound Farm and the road) produced large quantities of mid-17th to 18th-century pottery wasters, kiln furniture and tile wasters, in addition to fragments of clay tobacco-pipe (many datable to 1660-1680) and glass bottles.
