Abstract
Cambridge Archaeological Unit carried out a strip, map and record excavation on land just north of Snettisham, Norfolk, centred at 568348E 335104N from September to October 2006. The excavation exposed five Neolithic pits, and five earlier Neolithic tree throws. In addition, two large Bronze Age pits were identified and three Romano-British ditches, exposed in the 2005 evaluation, were revealed extending across the site. Three medieval furrows, sealed by a deep deposit of colluvial were revealed at the southernmost edge of the site, a pit and a small potentially medieval ditch, which post dated the furrows was also exposed.
