Full Description

An evaluation carried out in July 2000 investigated a field of rough pasture immediately north-east of Stowting Hill road. Some prehistoric artefacts were found within soil deposits from the wooded lynchet forming the north-east boundary of the field. It is possible, however, that they may only be residual finds (1).
