Full Description
November 2002 - January 2003. Geophysical, metal detecting and fieldwalking survey. Bacton to King's Lynn pipeline plot 114.
The geophysical survey recorded linear features interpreted as the probable remains of a former field system and three boundaries shown on the 1885 ordnance survey map may relate to these anomalies. The metal detecting survey recovered four metal objects including an Early Bronze Age axehead. Fieldwalking also recovered a flint flake, three burnt flints, a fragment of possible Roman brick, fived sherds of medieval pottery, nine fragments of medieval ceramic building material and a piece of slag. The cropmarl curvilinear feature (NHER 35531) was not corroborated by the field surveys.
