Abstract: |
NPS Archaeology was commissioned by Bespak Europe Ltd to carry out archaeological monitoring ahead of work on a building extension at Building 4, Bespak, Bergen Way, King's Lynn, Norfolk (TF 6270 2186). The size of the site to be monitored was approximately 576m² and was located within the Bespak building on Bergen Way, to the south of Building 4, on the west side of the complex. The elevation of the site is c.3.00m OD. The archaeological potential of the site stems from the proximity of the development to extensive sites of salt production, which took place in the medieval period in localities within 500m of the development area. The monitoring took place at the end of September and in early October 2015. It centred on archaeological observation of machine-excavated trenches within the footprint of the new extension, and the removal of concrete piling and ring beams from the underlying deposits of the site. No features or finds of archaeological interest were observed, or recovered from the groundworks at the site. |
