Abstract:
NPS Archaeology was commissioned by Mr and Mrs D. West to undertake an archaeological evaluation ahead of residential development at Glebe Farm, Pulham St Mary, Norfolk (TM 2114 8537). Glebe Farm is situated on the north side of Pulham St Mary, close to the centre of the village. The new residential development is to consist of four houses built in an area of former farmyard (Ref: 2014/0831). The evaluation was required due to the general proximity of the development site to the historic core of the village, and in particular due to the nearby location of antiquarian reports of bones and urns, unearthed between the site and the parish church (NHER 13143). There had been no previous archaeological investigations on the site. The current project comprised the excavation of three 20m-long archaeological trial trenches, in order to sample 5% of the development plot. In Trench 1, a pond/hollow and deposits related to a late 19th-century and early 20th-century bottle dump were observed. This large feature was clearly depicted on First and Second Edition Ordnance Survey maps. In Trench 2, several post-holes and pits, which appeared to date to the 16th-18th centuries, were possibly linked with the east wall of a large farm building (or its forerunner) that is depicted on the Ordnance Survey First and Second Edition maps. A thick layer of crushed brick in this part of the farmyard was probably the remains of this building. A small brick structure was observed at the northwest end of Trench 3. This is depicted on the Second Edition Ordnance Survey map and probably represents a small utilitarian farm building. An examination of 1946 and 1988 aerial photographs shows that much of the demolition of the buildings depicted on the early edition Ordnance Survey maps, and probably much of the dumping and levelling recorded on the site, occurred post-1946, so that by 1988 the farmyard had taken on its contemporary appearance.
