Description

PROJECT DETAILS Evaluation identified prehistoric struck flint found within the colluvium (L1002) and unstratified. The struck flint includes a large blade, possibly Mesolithic. A residual sherd of medieval (11th - 13th century) pottery was found in Pit F1025 (Tr.4). A range of features (pits, ditches and gullies) was recorded across the site. The majority of features contained no finds and were undated. Large pits F1015 and F1025 (Tr.4) contained post-medieval CBM and may have been quarry pits.
