Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	A programme of archaeological mitigation - Phase 1 informative trial trenching was carried out at 'Land East of Rocklands Road, Shropham, Norfolk' prior to proposed residential development of the site and to aid decisions regarding further mitigation. Very few archaeological remains were encountered. Undated linear features were present in trenches 3 and 5 and the fills of each produced small quantities of animal bone, probably indicating settlement nearby. These features did not correlate with cropmarks identified from aerial photographs. They may relate to land partition activities associated with the former 18th century common-edge farmstead at Manor Farm, though the alignment of the features with current boundaries may indicate a more recent date. A modern dump was present in Trench 2 and a probably modern feature was present in Trench 3.
