Full Description
May 2005. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of proposed development site. Contexts 1-43.
Revealed a large boundary ditch and some pits of medieval date. A small number of other pits, post holes and a small ditch may also have dated to the same period. A very large, possible, quarry pit and a row of three large post holes were probably of late post medieval date. Early 20th century activity at the site was represented by a number of dumps of rubbish.

The associated archive has been deposited with the Norwich Castle Museum (NWHCM : 2013.322).
