Description

{1} A fieldwalking survey on farmland at Milton Malsor. The development area comprised 39 fields, 11 of which were suitable for walking. {2} A small number of worked flints were recovered, but with no significant concentration. A single sherd of late Iron Age pottery was recovered and a light spread of Roman pottery. Medieval pottery was present in two areas of concentrations and a low to moderate manure scatter. Most of the post-medieval finds probably relate to field manuring, but the two concentrations of post-medieval pottery possibly relate to rubbish tipping. A general, but light scatter of medieval and post-medieval roof tile, metalworlcing debris and clay pipe were also collected. Other finds were minimal, but included fragments of medieval and post-medieval whetstones.
