Full Description
{1} Concentration of worked flint (period unspecified) found, during fieldwalking, at south end of field (existing prior to boundary removal).
{2} Many of the flints in the assemblage are flakes and cores, but other tools and arrowheads are present. They mostly appear to date to the late Neolithic or early Bronze Age. A fragment of prehistoric pottery was also found. The small rim-sherd is a type found in the late Neolithic, but it can also occur in early Iron Age pottery.
