1996-1997. Fieldwalking.
4 Roman grey ware sherds. Moderate to fine micaceous fabrics, including a large sherd from a single groove rim bowl with chamfered base and wavy line decoration mid wall.

It is also said that badly corroded Roman copper alloy coins have been found here.

March 2009. Systematic Fieldwalking and Metal-detecting Survey.
A fieldwalking and metal-detecting survey recorded 126 objects including:
5 prehistoric flint scrapers, 3 piercers, 4 utilised pieces, 4 cores, 2 blades, 2 blade-like flakes, 46 flakes, 1 hammerstone and 17 debitage. One piercer on a blade may be Early Neolithic, but the remainder of the flint assemblage could not be closely dated (although it is likely to be of Late Neolithic or later date).
1 Roman coin (4th century) and 2 pottery sherds.
1 Roman to medieval lead spindle whorl.
4 medieval pottery sherds.
1 ?medieval pot mend.
3 post-medieval coins (including love token made from a sixpence), 2 pottery sherds, 1 tin ampulla/measuring cup, 1 thimble, 1 cloth weight and 1 crotal bell.
3 undatable pieces of iron slag.
See report (S1) for further details.
The archive associated with this work has been deposited with the Norwich Castle Museum (NWHCM : 2018.176).
