From February 2003 to March 2005, Oxford Archaeology (OA) carried
out a programme of archaeological work in King's Lynn comprising
evaluation, strip and map, excavation and watching brief integrated
with the redevelopment of the Vancouver Centre and the construction
of the Clough Lane multi-storey car park. The work was carried out
on behalf of Alfred McAlpine Capital Projects. Despite extensive
modern construction, archaeological features, structures and
deposits of medieval date (12th-15th centuries) were recorded along
the existing frontages of Broad Street and New Conduit Street.
Archaeological deposits, building foundations and yard surfaces of
late medieval/post-medieval date (15th and 16th-18th centuries)
were recorded in localised areas in the car parks to the rear of
Sainsburys, the rear of Broad Street and to the south west of New
Conduit Street. Piezometers were installed in order to carry out a
two-year monitoring programme on the physical and chemical effects
of the development's piled construction on the underlying, and
otherwise unexposed, reclaimed marine and estuarine sediments.
Evaluation of the Clough Lane car park site revealed an intact
marine sediment sequence underlying all of the development area as
well as localised medieval structures and features.
