Context 1: general scatter medieval sherds becoming quite dense to west especially around Context 2. (S1).

Limited amount post medieval debris including fired clay, slag, and slate. Apparent all along field edge and may relate both to late usage of site and infilling of roadside dyke (which may have removed some of medieval site). 50 x 40m. (S2).
