Description

Following finds of medieval and post medieval pottery from ploughed fields (see ECH2752), excavations were undertaken between 1984 to 1987 on the remains of two medieval kilns at Upper Bereton Park Farm. The work was led by J. Rutter (Grosvenor Museum), with the help of local volunteers. The kilns yielded finds of mainly 13th century date.
