Full Description

April-June 2017. Watching Brief.
Monitoring of groundworks associated with construction of new shop and accommodation.
The foundation trenches excavated exposed two similar features that were probably elements of the same west-north-west to east-north-east aligned ditch. A third feature was probably a discrete pit. None of these remains produced any dating evidence and no unstratified finds were recovered.
See report (S1) for further details.
An archive associated with this work has been deposited with Norwich Castle Museum (NWHCM : 2022.225).
P. Watkins (HES), 20 July 2021. Amended 27 April 2024.
