Full Description
24 April 1984. Beet field with weathered soil; east part large field.
Context 1 = general scatter medieval sherds.
Context 2 at 5754 1500. Scatter medieval sherds and at least five Roman along side present dyke. Seems reasonable to assume dyke has truncated Roman feature but amount of material is small. Reason for medieval material unclear but may have spread from around Context 3.
Context 3 at 5758 1504. Spread medieval material covered by post medieval occupation debris on very slight rise (0.3m) adjacent to medieval drove. Medieval pot sparse, post medieval debris abundant; shell, bone and glass moderate. Medieval sherds generally small and rather difficult to detect amidst later rubbish. They cover the mound and spread down side.
Mound also visible as dark stain due to post medieval occupation. 50 x 50m.
