Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at the site of a proposed flood attenuation reservoir at Middleton Stop, Kings Lynn, Norfolk. The evaluation comprised a programme of augering to investigate and date the sedimentary sequence at the site and create a palaeotopographic model. Sub surface modelling of the auger data revealed a peat filled stream along the western and lowest part of the site. The base of this peat was carbon dated to the middle Neolithic period. A Roman period carbon date from the top of the peat on the highest part of the site demonstrates the survival of a 3000 year long sequence of organic deposits. Overlying these deposits were sediments associated with a marine inundation, probably during the late or post Roman period.
