Full Description
2004-2005. Desk-based Assessment.
Archaeological assessment of eastern route options for Norwich Northern Distributor Road.
See reports (S1) and (S2) for further details.
P. Watkins (HES), 12 July 2019.
March-June 2009. Geophysical Survey
Magnetometer survey on proposed line of the Norwich Northern Distributor Road (Site S1). One of three adjacent areas investigated due to their proximity to the site of a possible Roman marching camp (NHER 16451).
None of the anomalies detected were of obvious archaeological significance.
A large number of small discrete dipolar anomalies were detected, these almost certainly caused by fired or ferrous debris in the topsoil.
See (S3) for further details.
Previously recorded under NHER 34462.
P. Watkins (HES), 3 August 2015. Amended 12 July 2019.
April 2012-April 2013. Geophysical Survey.
Magnetometry survey on proposed line of Norwich Northern Distributor Road (Block 216).
This survey revealed little clear evidence for sub-surface archaeological remains. Although a range of anomalies were detected these were thought to be of predominantly agricultural or geological origin. The discrete dipolar anomalies detected are typical of the responses caused by the presence of modern ferrous debris.
See report (S4) for further details.
