Yesterday I carried a photograph of a number of trenches and earth piles on fields at the back of Longview. The photo was sent to me by local resident Ray Hannent who has now followed it up with another shot which is at the top of this page. This shows the digging of quite extensive trenches. Of course these are archaeological excavations. It will be interesting to see whether they unearth anything of historic importance to go alongside the Roman artefacts previously found.
A request today. If you are reading this blog on Facebook can you let me know in a reply whether you read the monthly Hethersett Herald e-magazine? I am trying to get an idea of how broad our readership is.
