Full Description
1960. Field west of Frogshall Farm.
Foundations visible.
Noted by D. R. Howlett
Copied from NCM card (S1) by R. R. Clarke (NCM).
P. Wade-Martins explains that this refers to an excavation by himself as a boy in which massive flint and mortar foundations were exposed. Howlett visited the dig.
1980. Site visit.
Field in pasture, full of earthworks. A long bank (?side of hollow way) runs east to west from a gateway in the west side; other earthworks form rectangles which could be toft sites. None of the earthworks continue outside the field, except for a pond on the north.
E. Rose (NAU), 5 November 1980.
Whole field now under arable. Slight undulations visible in young cereal crop.
H. Paterson (NLA), 4 March 1998.
