Full Description
November 2019-February 2020. Geophysical Survey.
Magnetometer survey of land on route of proposed North Tuddenham to Easton A47 Improvement Works (Area F4).
This survey identified no potentially archaeologically-significant anomalies. A single patch of magnetic enhancement was regarded as probably geological in origin. Areas of magnetic disturbance around the margins of the site and scattered discrete dipolar anomalies were probably caused by ferrous material in the topsoil (most likely modern debris).
Information from draft report. Final version awaited.

July-October 2020. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of land on route of proposed North Tuddenham to Easton A47 Improvement Works (Area 5; Trenches 20-24).
The five trenches excavated at this site revealed no archaeologically-significant remains. The one possible pit investigated was found to be of probable natural origin. The single large discrete anomaly recorded by the preceding geophysical survey was found to coincide with an area of modern disturbance.
See report (S1) for further details.
