Abstract:		 In June 2011, Archaeological Solutions Limited (AS), conducted an archaeological evaluation (trial trenching) at Mill Street, Necton, Norfolk (NGR TF 8801 0957). The evaluation was required in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning approval for the construction of a new residential development on the site (Breckland Planning Ref. 3PL/2010/1345/F). The majority of the features were identified in Trench 5. Although datable material (sparse 10th - 12th century pottery) was only recovered from two of the eight features, their morphology makes it probable that they are broadly contemporary, with similar functions. Apart from the pottery, no occupation debris in the form of animal bone, charcoal or other artefacts was recovered, indicating that the features may represent agricultural activity. Ditch F1014 was truncated by modern drainage works. According to a neighbouring landowner, before these works were undertaken in the late 1990s, the north-eastern area of the site was susceptible to waterlogging and flooding. F1014 may represent an early attempt to either drain this area, or to divert the water for use elsewhere. The dark silty fill of F1014, L1015, suggests the presence of waterborne organic deposits.
