A HISTORY OF NORFOLK 



GiLLINGHAM . 



Harling (East) 

 Haynford . . 



Hedenham . . 

 Heigham . . 



Geldeston . . . Interment, near the Waveney. Rude wooden cist, and in it glass 

 diota (containing infant's burnt remains, 'Second Brass' of Sabina 

 and part of a bulla), earthenware cup and potsherds \_Archieological 

 Journal, vi. 1 09, with plate; Norwich Museum; Dawson Tur- 

 ner, MS. 23,055, p. 126]. See figs. 29, 30. 

 Urn found in rebuilding chancel of church \_Archaological 'Journal, 

 xxiv. 72, with illustration], now in British Museum. Mr. C. H. 

 Read tells me it is not Roman. 

 . Denarius of Alex. Severus (Cohen, 364-366) \_Norfolk Archceology, 



iii. 420, iv. 314]. 

 . The urns found in the church 1872, and mentioned in the Journal 

 of the British Archaeological Association, xxix. 306, xxxv. 95, as 

 Roman, are medieval. 

 . Bronze statuette (3 inches high) of Faun or Cupid [Norfolk Arche- 

 ology, i. 366 ; Norwich vol. of Institute, xxvii. ; Journal of the 

 British Archaological Association, ii. 346 ; Archaological Journal, 

 xi. 28 — all unimportant notices]. See fig. 31. 

 . Kiln and wasters found 1858 : burial urns at a little distance \_Nor- 

 folk Archieology, vi. 149, 156; Archaological Journal, xviii. 374]. 

 See fig. 32. 

 . At Stonehills, 1867, plain leaden coffin, female skeleton, two bronze 

 rings, which however may more probably be post-Roman. Near 

 it another skeleton and fragments pf a cemented cist ; near also, 

 coin of Faustina senior; and also a small urn found 1853, now 

 in Norwich Museum [^Norfolk Archaology, vi. 213, 386 ; Archao- 

 logical Journal, xix. 88]. Heigham is an eastern suburb of 

 Norwich 



Hempnall . . . Burials east of the church, at 'The Walls,' found 1854. Very 

 doubtful if Roman \_Norfolk Archaology, v. 49]. 



Hethersett . . Bronze statuette of Hercules. Old road on farm called Plainards, 

 supposed to be Roman, but very doubtful [Archaologia, xxiii. 369 ; 

 Fox, Archaological Journal, xlvi. 361]. 



HoLKHAM . . . Remains at the Rabbit Farm, asserted [Archaologia, xxiii. 361]. 

 Probably not Roman. 



HoRNiNGTOFT . . Earthworks cleared 1852, one acre in extent, buildings inside. Also 

 old road 1 5 feet wide traced for a quarter of a mile. There is 

 no reason to think either Roman [Norfolk Archaology, iv. 359 ; 

 G. A. Carthew, Hundred of Launditch, iii. 251]. 



Horsey .... 'Second Brass' of Vespasian; urn, probably not Roman [^Norfolk 

 Archaology, iv. 355]. 



Howe .... Gold coin of Nero ; brick and flanged tile in church wall, as if a 

 villa near, unless brought four miles from Caister [^Archaological 

 Journal, x. 62]. See p. 297. 



Hunstanton . . Three urns found 1879 ^* "^^ esplanade [Cambridge Antiquarian 

 Communications, iv. 423]. 



IcKBURGH . . . Talbot and Gale put ' Iciani ' here, others * Sitomagus,' but no Roman 

 remains have ever been found. Blomefield's story of a ' large 

 milliare' [ii. 233] is absurd. On the etymology, see p. 287. 



Ingoldsthorpe . Republican coin of 1 50-100 B.C., denarius of Nero and a British 

 coin [Blomefield, x. 339 ; Gough's Add. to Camden, ii. 198]. 



KiMBERLEY . . . Largish fibula, now in Norwich Museum [Fox]. 



King's Lynn . . It was an old wild fancy that Catus Decianus founded Lynn [Wm. 

 Richards, Hist, of Lynn, i. 312]. No Roman remains occur here. 

 Even the recent extensive excavations for drainage have (as Mr. 

 E. M. Beloe tells me) produced nothing. A ' First Brass ' of 

 Hadrian is said to have been found near Lynn, in cutting the 

 new channel of the Ouse [Wisbech Museum]. 



KiRBY Cane . . Kiln, pottery, animals' bones on ' Pewter Hill ' [Norfolk Archaology, 



'V- 313]- 

 Lakenheath . . Large fibula, figured Archaological Journal, vi. 405.
