Full Description

January 1986: Prehistoric finds located during parish fieldwalking survey on Field F277. Listed as 1 body sherd `IA', 10 flint flakes.

Also note small concentration of heavily burnt flints at TM 2178 4785 from recent tree-root burning (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).
