Name:Woodcock Hall Iron Age to Roman settlement and Roman forts

Summary

The Iron Age and Roman settlement at Woodcock Hall has been known since the mid 19th century. Systematic fieldwalking and metal detecting has recovered an enormous number of Iron Age and Roman finds including coins, pottery, building materials and metal objects. The dates of the objects indicate that this was an area of significant settlement from the Late Iron Age until the 4th century AD. The finds scatter is widespread between Threxton and Saham Toney. To the south of the stream the number of mid 1st century military finds recovered from a small plateau suggests this is the site of a Claudian fort built to guard the river crossing. The very hot summer in 1996 enabled the identification of cropmarks of a second later fort straddling the Peddar's Way (NHER 1289, a Roman road) where it crosses the stream. Traces of roads and structures within the large fort can also be seen on aerial photographs. A separate possible annexe or horse compound has also been identified. The fort was the garrison for around 800 Roman legionaries and cavalry and was probably built in the second half of the first century AD on the site of an earlier Iron Age site. It may have been constructed in response to the Boudican revolt. An archaeological watching brief was carried out on the site by NAU Archaeology in 2007, this recovered 17 sherds of Roman pottery, as well as human skeletal remains which may represent an in-situ inhumation. Metal detecting in 2009 recovered a hoard of Roman objects secreted within a cauldron.

Excavation limited to pole and stay holes for the replacement of electricity poles within fields north and east of Woodcock Hall. No archaeological features were observed due to restricted nature of the intervention.
18 sherds of Romano-British coarse ware pottery were recovered, dating to between the late 1st and 2nd centuries, along with one fragment of undated roof tile.
Human skeletal remains were recovered, which may represent an in-situ inhumation, associated with one fragment of Romano-British pottery.

E. Bales (NLA), 22 May 2008. Amended by P. Watkins (HES), 27 April 2019.

September 2008. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of site at Watton Sewage Treatment Works. From context 20.
The excavation revealed Roman features and finds indicating settlement dating to between the 2nd and 4th centuries AD. The material recovered indicates a substantial structure was located within the vicinity included a hypocaust or bath-house, although the proximity of the river could suggest that the latter is more likely. The size and type of the Roman tiles and ceramic building material recovered suggest that presence of two different buildings or at least a single building with two phases of construction. A small quantity of Saxon and medieval pottery was also recovered which could indicate activity during these periods or could have been introduced by other means including manuring.
See report (S22) for further details. The results of this work are also summarised in (S23).
