Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Monitoring works c.5km of flood defence works in five sperate areas revealed some artefacts and features. The earliest activity recorded was at Hickling where a small number of Bronze Age worked flints including an arrowhead and scrapers were found. Peat extraction pits were noted at Somerton and clay extraction pits to the north of Horsey, all of which were probably medieval or post-medieval in date. A ditch and bank, which follow the line of the parish boundary between Horsey and Sea Palling and are depicted on the Tithe Map were also recorded. Towards Somerton ditches of 19th- and 20th-century date were recorded, along with a scattering of 20th-century artefacts.
