Abstract: combines archaeological and historical evidence with regard to industrial activity along the river Wensum from the Saxon period, and discusses industries beside the river and of the river as well as those which used the river. Identifiable industries include tanning, skinning, dyeing and fulling. The river gravels were exploited for small-scale ironworking. Placename and documentary evidence is used to suggest the location of various industries
