Magnetometry survey of proposed development area.
See report (S1) for details.
D. Gurney (NLA), 15 December 2001.
January and March 2002. Trial Trenching.
Trial trenching revealed a few linear features and recovered some flints.
An additional trench subsequently excavated across the line of a previously identified cropmark ring ditch (NHER 31470) failed to identify any convincing trace of this feature.
See reports (S2) and (S3) for further details. The results of this work are also summarised in (S4).
The associated archive has been deposited with the Norwich Castle Museum (NWHCM : 2018.181).
