Abstract:		 Informative Trenching as part of a Programme of Archaeological Mitigatory Work was undertaken on Land to the Southeast of Church Street, Great Ellingham, Norfolk. The area of the proposed development comprises approximately 2.65ha of open agricultural land situated on the east periphery of Great Ellingham village. Thirteen trenches were excavated as part of the project. The trenches were distributed to achieve maximum coverage of the proposed development area. Anomalies identified during a preceding geophysical survey of the development area as potential archaeological features were targeted by each trench.. The results of the work indicates that archaeological features are present on the site and survive in a good state of preservation. The features are mainly concentrated in trenches in the west part of site which occupy the higher ground and are represented by ditches, pits and occasional post-holes. Although the project recorded a high density of features, dating evidence in the form of datable artefacts was relatively scarce. However, most features appear to date to the Late Saxon period and represent probable settlement evidence in association with ditched enclosures. Occupation of the site appears to have ceased following the Norman conquest although ditched enclosures of 12th to 14th century were recorded. Two very large pits of uncertain function probably date to the 12th or 13th century.
