Abstract/Summary

Report on an archaeological excavation conducted on land to the west of Normanton as part of a scheme of works relating to the replacement of a water pipeline between Normanton and Hough-on-the-Hill. During a prior programme of archaeological monitoring and recording (see ELI2326), human remains were encountered, at which point the excavation was halted until a full excavation could be undertaken. Thirty Anglo-Saxon inhumation burials with a wide array of grave goods were excavated. Roman features including pits, post holes and ditches, as well a large assemblage of pottery were also encountered. These were likely associated with the known Romano-British building in the vicinity
