NHER 65833 (Monument record) - ?Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age and undated ditches and undated pit

October 2017-March 2018. Geophysical Survey.
Magnetometer survey of site on proposed route of onshore cable for Norfolk Vanguard and Boreas Offshore Wind Farms (Area F112).
This survey identified no potentially archaeologically-significant anomalies.
A number of scattered discrete dipolar anomalies are likely to represent ferrous objects on or close to the surface (most likely modern debris). The remaining discrete anomalies are all of probable geological origin.
There was no evidence for surviving sub-surface remains associated with a group of discrete cropmarks and a single linear cropmark mapped at the eastern end of this site (all part of a group of probable medieval to post-medieval remains recorded as NHER 39003). It should be noted that this survey also failed to identify any trace of several former field boundaries shown on 19th-century maps.
Information from draft report. Final version awaited.

October 2020-June 2021. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of site on proposed route of onshore cable for Norfolk Vanguard and Boreas Offshore Wind Farms (Area F074; Trenches 67 and 539).
The easternmost of the two trenches excavated revealed a undated pit and an adjacent east-to-west aligned ditch that produced three sherds of Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age pottery.
The western trench exposed an undated north-west to south-east aligned ditch.
No unstratified finds were recovered.
Information from draft report. Final version awaited.
