A grant of planning was issued for the construction of 52 dwelling-houses in the restored Norwood House grounds. The site is outside the zone of archaeological potential of Ronayne’s Court, a fortified house. The grant of planning required that the removal of topsoil and subsurface disturbance be monitored. Topsoil was removed by machine using a toothless bucket. No finds or features of an archaeological nature were noted.
