Full Description

1995: Pottery sherds, including colour coated rim. Mainly eroded from Mill River bank (S1).
Brooch found in field to N (TM 220 434).
Also Med.
Monitoring of soil in connection with awater-main revealed only one area of archaeological interest: a probable ditch, 2m wide, which yielded late-12th-to 14th-century pottery. This lay close to a previously recorded Roman and medieval pottery scatter. The ditch coincided with an existing fench ling alonf the northern edge of the meadows beside The Mill River, suggesting continuity between the present field boundaries and their medieval predecessors. See (S2).
