Whitehowe HY 4840 5060 HY45SE

In the eroding cliff-face near Whitehowe, some 40m S of the King's Craig settlement-site (HY45SE 14) is a broad basin, which evidently is a naust seen in cross-section. It is 4m wide, 1.1 m deep, and its bottom is 0.9m above the beach. The naust has been filled with earth and stones; the earth fill merges on each side into a buried soil layer, which northwards merges into the lowest midden layer on the King's Craig site.
