Summary

In 1992 a number of prehistoric worked and burnt flints were recorded on the ground surface. Subsequent metal-detecting between 2005 and 2015 recovered late prehistoric worked flints including a piercer; medieval and post-medieval coins; medieval and post-medieval jettons and Roman, Middle Saxon and medieval to post-medieval metal objects. The metal finds include a Roman brooch; a Middle Saxon pin; medieval to post-medieval dress accessories and harness mounts; a medieval padlock, dagger quillion, lead weight and stirrup-shaped finger-ring; medieval/post-medieval copper alloy vessel rim, lead weights and a thimble and a post-medieval sword-belt hanger, scabbard mount and cloth seal.
