NHER 22911 (Monument record) - Roman pot sherds and rectangular enclosures in field overlooking Potsy Run

1950. In southwest part of field overlooking Potsy Run (String Drain on (S1)). Found while ridging potatoes after first deep-ploughing.
Many large fresh sherds of Roman pottery, 3rd-4th century, including Nene Valley colour coated beakers, bowls and flagon, Nene Valley mortaria, Oxon white-slipped mortaria and red-slipped imitation f18/31, Much Hadham necked jar, grey wares including bead and flanged bowls, and South Midlands shell-gritted ware. Also handle of Grimston
green-glazed jug (14th century in date). Three large fragments of flue tile also recovered.

No more pottery turned up in subsequent years, but the site was not deep-ploughed again.
The above finds are from context 1.

October 1994. Aerial Photograph Interpretation.
A complex of rectangular enclosures were identified.
These were originally recorded under this number, but further examination of the aerial photographs in 2019 resulted in the transfer of this information to NHER 63065. See NHER 63065 for further details of these observations, including the possible interpretation of the remains of a Roman building.

January 2019. Breckland National Mapping Programme.
The enclosures (and possible building) described above are now recorded as NHER 63065.

February 2021. Interpretation.
It should be noted that the mapped extent of this record is approximate, based on information supplied and hand-mapped sometime around 1986. In 1994 the finds were described as having originated from within the main enclosure, but in 2019 the enclosure was mapped several metres to the east of this location (see NHER 63065). Further work is required to determine their exact relationship to each other.
