September 2011. Watching Brief.
Monitoring of groundworks associated with construction of new dwelling.
This work revealed in situ medieval finds and archaeological deposits within the historic core of Old Buckenham. A sequence of well-preserved late medieval to post-medieval deposits was recorded across much of the site, including a small number of waste pits which pre-date a 15th to 16th century yard surface and culvert. Pottery and finds indicative of a relatively affluent late medieval to early post-medieval household were also recovered from the area.
