Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was conducted for Lovell Partnerships Ltd. ahead of a new housing development on former allotments at Yarmouth Road, Norwich. The development site (0.4 hectares) was located on a south-facing slope looking over the River Yare in an area where significant prehistoric activity has been previously recorded on the other sidee of the valley. The land use as allotments meant it was likely that little damage to archaeological remains would have occured. Three trenches were excavated and apart from a single prehistoric worked flint- a possible borer- no archaeological remains were encountered. Interestingly this flint artefact, although not in situ (and had signs of reworking), was recovered some 0.85m below the modern surface within what appear to be cryoturbated deposits tentatively suggesting prehistoric surfaces dating to before the last glacial advance (10,000-11,000 years ago) buried at some depth by later colluvium.
