Description
The survey revealed an array of typical finds associated with an arable area heavily used during the post medieval and modern periods . The survey revealed a variety of metal and pottery finds which date predominantly to the Post Medieval period. A single hammered silver coin was recovered dating to the medieval period.
The absence of any significant artefact concentrations, e.g. settlement or industrial activity, indicates a low archaeological potential. There was a potential for distribution along lines of communication but this area lay in the truncated areas to the north-west abutting Old Mill Lane.
