Full Description
November 2005. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of proposed development site. Contexts 100 to 401.
Revealed a small oval pit with six small pottery sherds from the fill. These sherds were identified as a mix of Iron Age, Roman and Saxon pottery, although a subsequent re-examination suggests that all are Iron and Roman (see below).
See report (S1) for further details. The results of this work are also summarised in (S2).
The associated archive has been deposited with the Norwich Castle Museum (NWHCM : 2010.89).
