Summary
Fieldwalking here during 1991 recorded a spread of prehistoric worked flints and recovered Iron Age, Late Saxon and medieval pottery sherds and medieval roof tiles.

These metal finds include a Roman brooch; a medieval probable hooked tag, fragment of binding strip and lead pot mend; medieval/post-medieval copper alloy vessel fragments and a post-medieval buckle, button, book clasp, lead cloth seal and lead trade weight.
