TL 8683. Graves of Middle Saxon date had been cut through RB and Pagan Saxon material on a site by the junction of the Little Ouse river and the town ditch. Eighty-five skeletons were recovered, detailed anthropometrical and pathological examination indicating that the principal diseases were osteoarthritis and paradontal dental abscesses. The skulls were round, perhaps indicating a Frisian origin, with asymmetry ascribed to cradle binding. The decapitated skulls of a long-headed man and woman had been carefully reburied in separate stone-lined hollows. Cooking hearths were strewn with Middle Saxon pottery. In the 11th cent church the S and E walls of the chancel and vestry were of rubble, with false-ashlar plastering and oolite quoins. Inside were traces of a wooden building. Near the altar lay a fragment of bronze censer and piece of Laconian porphyry. The church was covered by a strong revetted bank and ditch of a circular enclosure with inner perimeter track. No pottery later than about AD 1300 was found. DFR
The bloomery site at West Runton, Norfolk

TG 183414; 174417. A 9th-12th cent bloomery furnace was located by magnetic survey and excavated in 1964. The working area had been intensely used during the currency of Thetford ware. A roasting-hearth and the lower part of a clay-lined smelting furnace survived: the indications of a low shaft suggest affinities with furnaces at Stamford and High Bishopley, Co Durham. Smelting, probably with the addition of manganese-rich pan, gave a yield of finished iron one-quarter by weight of the roasted ore. Slag was tapped during the process. 1200yd from the smelting site two mine-pits and the unworked ground between them were sectioned to determine the supply of ore. A typical pit might produce 5cu.ft of nodules (weighing 600lb before roasting) in about 270cu.ft of sand, much of the ore coming from a pan layer within 3ft of the original ground surface. A table shows analyses of ferruginous material formerly used for building material in Norfolk and generally similar to the pan at West Runton. DWC
