Site Event/Activity record ESF21302 - Evaluation, 35 The Street, Icklingham

Rubbish pits dated by pottery were excavated during an evaluation at 35, The Street, Icklingham. The pits were concentrated alongside the road frontage and the pottery suggests two previous periods of occupation in the 12th-14th century and the 16th-18th century. Building materials, including 13th-15th century bricks and degraded clay lump, were also found but the site of a building was not identified. The medieval pottery consisted mainly coarsewares but included a fragment of a Grimston Glazed ware jug, dating to the Late 12th-14th century. A single unstratified sherd of a Roman greyware and a fragment of Thetford ware, dating to the Late Saxon period was also found.
