NHER 29412 (Find Spot record) - Possible Late Neolithic/Bronze Age flint working site and multi-period finds

November 1992-January 1993. Systematic Fieldwalking Survey.
Evaluation on proposed route of Hardwick Landfill site access road (Field 9):
A few small flint blades and a small core of probable Mesolithic date.
Many flints of probable Late Neolithic/Bronze Age date. Mostly flakes but also scrapers and blades.
1 Beaker pottery sherd.
Small number of Iron Age pottery sherds.
1 medieval coin.
Post-medieval pottery sherds.
The flints were concentrated down the hill slope, nearly coinciding with the thin scatter of prehistoric sherds. This site may represent an area of flint working, possibly even an occupation area.
See report (S1) for further details.
An archive associated with this work has been deposited with Norwich Castle Museum (NWHCM : 2022.164).
