Map

1955. In garden of Woodside House, Hainford Road.
Butt end of polished flint axe.
Information from NCM card.

Grid reference is a house beside the wood, the only house in Hainford Road which does not have a name displayed; post office say that this must be 'Woodside House' as there are only two other houses in Hainford Road, which have both had their present names (Sunnyside and Fiddler's Hill) since they were built in 1930s and 1950s.
E. Rose (NAU), 3 May 1978.
