Binham Gauging Station, Warham, Norfolk

On the 8th May 2012, OA East carried out an archaeological watching brief atBinham Gauging Station, Warham, Norfolk (TF 96000 41393). The monitoring consisted of the observation of services trenches and the foundations of a kiosk. Much of the groundworks took place within an embankment of material likely formed by the occasional maintenance of the adjoining waterway. The deepest excavations occurred within a trench crossing the river and cutting the river bed. This trench was excavated into the natural gravels, however no significant archaeological deposits or features were encountered.
