Abstract:		 Archaeological evaluation by trial trenching was carried out for Wellington Construction Ltd on the site of the former Pilot Cinema, John Kennedy Road, King's Lynn. This work was undertaken ahead of the proposed construction of new housing on the site. The evaluation trenching located the southern edge of the Fisher Fleet and showed that the fleet appeared to have been infilled, probably in the mid to late 16th century, with a mix of redeposited flood silts and building debris, mostly medieval tile and mortar. A wall of probable post-medieval date was recorded on the southern side of the site. This wall is thought to have been a property boundary, constructed after or as part of the reclamation of the land by the dumping of silty soils and building debris. A number of early post-medieval pits containing dumps of medieval building debris were also recorded cutting to the south of this wall. A substantial pit filled with waste materials from the production of glass and extensive layers of glass cullet used as levelling material on the edge of the infilled Fisher Fleet provide evidence for the presence of a glassworks known to have been present on the site in the mid to late 17th century. Later brick walls and surfaces were recorded which probably relate to the use of the site in the 18th and 19th centuries.
