Record Details

NHER Number:3974
Type of record:Monument
Name:Roman settlement and deserted medieval village, Narford

Summary

This is the site of a Roman settlement, and large number of Roman finds have been recovered during fieldwalking, metal detecting and excavation. These include hundreds of Roman coins, fragments of pottery and metal finds including a cauldron or bucket mount in the shape of an ox's head and a lovely example of a Dragonesque brooch with enamel decoration. Part of the site was excavated in 1952 and a flint-lined well and the remains of a square building with flint walls were discovered. This may also be the site of the deserted medieval village of Narford, which is mentioned in the Domesday Book. There were nearly one hundred houses in the mid 15th century but by 1805 only two houses remained. Iron Age, Early, Middle and Late Saxon, medieval and post-medieval coins, pottery and metal finds have also been recovered from the site during fieldwalking and metal detecting between 1980 and 2012.
