Abstract: |
During November 2012 Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation (field survey) on land at South Bradwell, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk (NGR TG 508 028). The evaluation was required by the local planning authority (Great Yarmouth Borough Council) in advance of the submission/ determination of a planning application for residential-led development based on advice from Norfolk County Council Historic Environment Service. The fieldwalking recovered a total of 113 pieces (2085g) of struck flint. The assemblage includes part of a flaked axe, scrapers, blades and debitage of mixed prehistoric date and technology, ranging from the Mesolithic to the later Neolithic/early Bronze Age. The flint cores and tools from all prehistoric periods are broadly distributed in the southern, western and north-western sectors of the site. The bulk of the assemblage comprises debitage or waste flakes with limited diagnostic potential but their distribution again reflects the worked flint being located in the western, southern and northern sectors of the site. A single sherd (20g) of late Bronze Age to early Iron Age pottery was recovered from Find Spot (FS) 145 on the far western side of the site. Sixteen abraded medieval (10th - 13th; 11th - 13th/ 14th' 12th - 14th century) pottery were found on the western and eastern sides of the site and may be attributed to manuring. |
