Abstract: |
The trial trenching was undertaken following Standards for Development-led Archaeological Projects in Norfolk (Robertson et al 2018), as well as the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists’ (CIfA) Standard and guidance for field evaluation (2020a), and in accordance with the WA fieldwork manual (2017). The fieldwork programme was followed by an assessment of the data as set out in the Standard and guidance for field evaluation (CIfA 2020a) and the Standard and guidance for the collection, documentation, conservation and research of archaeological materials (CIfA 2020b). Six trenches were excavated which revealed a series of inundation and waterlogging layers, including a peat deposit that formed prior to marine inundation in the Roman period, and a single wide ditch [1008] containing 74g of medieval tile. The ditch was cut by a modern field drain [2012]. Ditch [1008] is likely to represent both a boundary and drainage ditch. |
