Abstract:
The results of archaeological monitoring during the demolition of an existing bungalow 'Hill View', and the development of a replacement dwelling within the same c. 600m2 plot at Castle Hill Road, New Buckenham. The development plot sits immediately south of New Buckenham Castle, built by William D'Albini in 1146. The planned town to the east of the castle was laid out at the same time and the plot is located in the hinterland of the town, which largely still remains within its medieval defences. Two features were revealed below the subsoil, a north-to-south aligned late medieval ditch and a shallow pit. Both contained similarly charcoal laden fills and are suggested to be contemporary. No evidence of metal working or similar industry was evident, although other forms of wood-fuel rich activities may-well have been taking place here, just outside the main settlement. A small number of medieval to post-medieval metal objects were collected during the course of the monitoring; a cauldron foot, a domed stud, a probable knife terminal, a lead pot-mender and a suspension ring, a post-medieval jetton and a 17th century trading token. These finds appear to demonstrate minor medieval to post-medieval activity on the fringes of the medieval settlement, within site of the Castle, although casual losses and the spreading of night soil and ditch clearances on former agricultural land could account for the presence of the finds here. The most intriguing finds are two possible lead weights, tokens or counters cut from lead sheet and stamped with differing designs of medieval date.
