Abstract: |
The desk based assessment has been prepared to establish the archaeological potential of KiInside, The Crossroads, Brome. The site is located on high ground overlooking the Rivers Waveney and Dove, a situation in which moderate potential for evidence of prehistoric activity can be expected. Its close proximity to a Roman road also offers moderate potential for contemporary deposits to exist within the site. A documentary survey has demonstrated that the site lay within Broome Common during the medieval period before enclosure in 1812. The site was then used as arable land until the construction of Kilnside at some point in the 20th century. The site therefore has only minimal potential for archaeological deposits of post-Roman date. The site's later history as part of Broome Common, small post-medieval arable plot and 20th century garden means it is unlikely to have seen activities which would have substantially disturbed evidence of earlier occupation. Across the majority of the site preservation of any deposits is likely to be good, apart from under the footprint of Kilnside itself. The development has already taken place. This has seen the demolition of the existing house and construction of a new property. Groundworks for the development will have had a severe detrimental impact upon any surviving archaeological deposits. The undeveloped areas of the plot however still have low to moderate potential for undisturbed deposits to exist in a good state of preservation. |
