ARCHAEOMAGNETIC DATING: HOLLY TREE FARM, POTT ROW, GRIMSTON, NORFOLK.

Author(s): Paul Linford

Two superimposed clay floors from a Medieval, multi-flued pottery kiln, discovered during excavations at Holly Tree Farm, Pott Row, near Grimston, Norfolk, were sampled for archaeomagnetic dating. The mean thermoremanent directions of both features were imprecise and the corresponding dates anomalously early. It was concluded that disturbance since the kiln was last fired was the most likely cause.
