NHER 15636 (Find Spot record) - Multi-period finds

Pre 1975. Stray Find.
This field is one of several in Wiveton that formed the lands of Church Farm in 1977. Prior to this date the farmer [1] had collected 38 Neolithic flaked and polished flint axeheads from these fields, although unfortunately the exact provenance of these objects was not recorded. See NHER 60094 and (S1) for further details.
