Full Description
October 2013. Systematic Metal-detecting Survey.
Field survey prior to proposed development of site.
A small quantity of prehistoric worked flint was recovered, suggesting flint working in the vicinity during the Neolithic period. A single probable medieval object was recovered in the form of a copper alloy cauldron foot. Post-medieval finds from the site include crotal bells. Much of the remainder of the assemblage appears to be from aircraft and includes numerous fragments of aluminium, most of which are pieces of aircraft fuselage. The site of a probable aircraft crash is recorded separately (NHER 60577).
