A group of us visited the Roman Pottery collection at Harlow Museum. Chris
Lydamore (Curator) plus Clare and Lee - two of his team, gave up their
morning to give us an excellent and informative time. We learnt about the
origins and features of Hadham Ware pottery and had a 'hands on' session
with some of the museum's artifacts. We hope to continue our links with
Chris and his team as we have already discovered Hadham Ware in the last
two summer digs on Church Field Norton. For pictures of the event click here

Keith Fitzpatrick-Matthews (NHDC Archaeology Officer and also our Dig

Survey. Two groups are being established under the leadership of Greg Ford

Norton has extraordinarily well preserved historical records covering 1000 years of
our social history. We also have unspoilt archaeology spanning 5000 years. The
Norton Community Archaeology Group (NCAG) was set up 2 years ago to further our
knowledge of the village and surrounding area through practical “hands-on” historical
research and archaeological excavations. Our projects will illuminate hitherto unknown
aspects of the village's past and bring it to life for the inhabitants of the area.
