Full Description

1983/4: Concentration of worked flint, including 3 scrapers, on a sandhill. The general scatter from the surrounding field includes a broken oblique arrowhead. Located during the Fenland survey (S1).

Descriptions of flint finds are broad, dating to a specific period bracket is ill-advised. However, they may be later Prehistoric, based on details of discovery, (S2).
