NHER 67344 (Negative evidence record) - Site with no evidence for archaeologically-significant remains

The Norfolk Heritage Explorer is a filtered version of the Norfolk HER intended for casual research. Please contact us to consult the full record.

Summary

Archaeological work at this location prior to and during the installation of the electrical connection for an offshore windfarm revealed no evidence for archaeologically-significant remains. An initial geophysical survey identified no anomalies of potentially archaeological significance and a subsequently excavated trial trench all revealed no evidence for sub-surface remains. A watching brief maintained during the actual installation of the electrical cable also recorded nothing of archaeological interest.
