Full Description
Fieldwalking in 1992 over three fields recorded a number of worked flints. Field 1, the southern of the two walked west of the road, was the most productive with 42 flints recovered, but the scatter did not appear to extend north into Field 2. In Field 3, to the east, two cores and a fine leaf-shaped arrowhead were found.
