Abstract:
In February 2010, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) conducted an archaeological evaluation by window sampling at 7 South Lynn Plain, King's Lynn, Norfolk (NGR TF 6204 1949). The evaluation was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning permission to construct a residential dwelling. The development had already started and part of the foundations had been laid. The evaluation was to determine whether any archaeological remains beneath the slab, if present, are likely to be damaged by the rest of the development using this foundation design. The site lies within the historic core of Kings Lynn which developed as one of the foremost medieval ports in England. Two boreholes were drilled, one at the front and one at the rear of the site, each with a diameter of 60mm. The boreholes used a windowless linear system which obtained cores from the modern ground surface to a depth of 5m below ground level. Borehole 2 recorded made ground deposits to a substantial depth (1.80m). The lowest made ground deposit, L1012, is recorded as containing frequent brick, mortar and tarmac, and the brick is modern. The made ground deposits in Borehole 1 were more numerous and equally substantial (depth 1.80m). Made Ground L1003 (0.68 - 1.52m) contained frequent brick and tarmac, and the brick is modern. Within the confines of the borehole sampling, only Made Ground deposits BH1 L1004 (1.52-.167m) and BH1 L1005 (1.67 - 1.80m) may be judged as possible archaeological deposits.
