Summary

A number of Neolithic objects, including arrowheads and a knife, have been recovered from the area. See NHER 62082 for a group of three ring ditches, which probably represent the remains of Neolithic and/or Bronze Age round barrows forming a small cemetery, which were previously recorded under this number.

Three apparent ring ditches, hard to distinguish from a mass of frost polygons; but A. Lawson (NAU) considers they are genuine.

Also from this field four laurel leaves, one petit tranchet derivative, one triangular arrowhead, two piercers, one discoidal knife. Three leaf arrowheads, two scrapers.
