Full Description
Flint artefacts, found during fieldwalking in 1990 prior to forestry ploughing. The finds were mainly concentrated on the higher ground in the northern part of the field, comprising the gravel banks lying on the terrace 10m above the river. All flint is debitage or artefacts but little retouched blades, flakes, cores and waste. There were two noticeable concentrations, one on the northwest part of the field where the most southerly gravel ridge is truncated by the river and forms a bluff. The flints from the top of the ridge included smaller blades and flakes than average across the rest of the field. More finds of flint were reported during tree planting operations. The second concentration lay around the cottage garden and field wall, in particular at the top of the ridge. Here the pieces were small, often small blades.
