Full Description
April-June 2011. Watching Brief.
Monitoring of excavation of trench to carry electrical cable for new pumping station.
No archaeologically-significant features or deposits were exposed.
A thin topsoil lay above an orange/brown silt clay, beneath which was a moist grey/black clayey silt.
At approximately TG 3748 1706 a discrete deposit of compacted brick rubble was observed, which possibly represented an infilled ditch. The bricks were Norfolk Reds and probably originated from the nearby mill that had been demolished during the 1960s (NHER 8455).
See report (S1) for further details.
An archive associated with this work has been deposited with Norwich Castle Museum (NWHCM : 2012.229).
