Summary
Metal-detecting in 2011 recovered medieval and post-medieval coins, medieval furniture-fitting, annular brooch and spur buckle, post-medieval buckles, belt mount, openwork mount and button. These were found somewhere in the vicinity of the spot mapped, as the finder was uncertain of the findspot. Some objects may have been from the vicinity of 55991 instead.
