Full Description
{1} Large amounts of limestone, tesserae, box tile, pottery (including colour coated and shell tempered ware) and roofing slate. Given the size of limestone blocks (approx 300m x 200m) it would seem likely that the material is in the correct location and has not travelled down the slope. Found during casual observation.
