Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was conducted for Anglian Water Services Limited during the installation of a new sewer link which crossed part of the A140 in the middle of the town of Long Stratton. The route of the A140 in this part of Norfolk follows the route of Roman Pye Street. A large number of service trenches were encountered, truncating any earlier road make-up deposits. The earliest deposit encountered was a deposit of sand and gravel laid directly on top of natural clay . This deposit was dated to the post medieval period by tile fragments, but this does not exclude the possibility that this may be the Roman road make-up, with the tile originating from later repairs. |
