Abstract:		 A programme of archaeological trial trenching was undertaken on land north of Grange Farm, Main Street, Welney, Norfolk between the 5th and 9th of November 2018 by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS). The work took place in advance of a proposed residential development. There are a number of known archaeological sites within the vicinity of the development site and a geophysical survey produced results which were tentatively interpreted as possible archaeological features. Therefore the Norfolk Planning Archaeologist, as advisor to the local planning authority, requested that a staged programme of archaeological investigation take place to identify, locate and record any archaeological remains that may be affected by the development. Four 50m long trenches and six 30m long trenches were excavated across the site. The geophysical anomalies were identified as being hay rick bases or stack stands of 19th century origin. Two former ditches or plot boundaries with late 19th century backfill were also found running from east to west and north to south across the site. The eastern end of the site, alongside Main Street, had been heavily disturbed by recently demolished modern buildings. No earlier archaeological features were found during the work.
