February 2006.
Traces of occupation on the northern side of the ploughed field. Remains of the foundations of three or four buildings. Bricks, tiles and flints with ironwork, bones and pot sherds.Medieval wares and 15th to 18th century. Mainly of 16th to 17th century. Inhabited at least as early as the 13th or 14th century with activity continuing until the late 17th or 18th centuries when it contracted leaving only the farmhouse. This could have been Thursmore Street or Storkisey. The latter identity seems more probable.
