Abstract:		 An archaeological trial trench evaluation was carried out by Pre-Construct Archaeology on Land at Green Lane West (NGR TG 2814 1255) between the 20th August and 8th September 2018. The archaeological work was commissioned by CgMs prior to proposed construction works associated with residential development. The aim of the work was to characterise the archaeological potential of the proposed development area. A total of 43 archaeological trial trenches were excavated across the site to a standard pattern in order to identify and provide a sample of any archaeological features present and to enable decisions to be made about possible mitigation measures. The evaluation uncovered nine features including pits, a ditch and a possible ditch dispersed across the site without any obvious pattern. Three pits and a possible ditch contained varieties of flint, often very small, including worked and burnt flint fragments all indicative of a prehistoric date. Radiocarbon dating of charcoal from four of the pits suggests that most, if not all, were of Iron Age date. A flint blade core and worked flint from the possible ditch had Mesolithic/Early Neolithic characteristics in keeping with the background of the site as recorded on the Norfolk Historical Environment Record. A boundary ditch of late post-medieval date was also excavated.
