Summary

Fieldwalking in 1990 produced 13 pieces of late medieval/ early post-medieval unglazed sandy pottery and green splash-glaze pottery in one corner of a field. This may suggest a settlement of this date in the corner of the field. A number of similar fragments and some post medieval pottery sherds were recovered from the rest of the field.

Full Description

Fieldwalking in 1990 produced 13 pieces of unglazed sandy pottery and green splash-glaze pottery in an area c. 40m x 40m. Probably late medieval/early post medieval in date. May suggest a settlement of this date in the corner of the field. A few pieces of same type of pottery also came from the rest of the field, with a possible slight concentration on the northern slopes of the dried up stream course. 6 other pieces of 16th - 19th C pottery also recovered from field (1).
