Full Description
1965. Casual Find.
A large quantity of pottery sherds were recovered while digging foundations for a new bungalow located about 91m (100yds) down the Icknield Way from London Road. The assemblage consisted primarily of Thetford ware, but also included green-glazed ware. A plan (S1) indicates the location of the find and also suggests the presence of a possible foundation.
