Full Description
Scatter of pottery in an area of dark soil with burnt flints;  the main concentration is about 20 metres across.  The scatter lies immediately to the south west of a hollow, probably an infilled pond or extraction pit, which abutts the N edge of the field.  The pottery is predominantly grey wares, and very plentiful, jar and bowl froms of probable C2-C3 date.  One piece of mortarium and two joining samian ware sherds were found, also a bone peg of unknown date (S1)(S2). 
A further small group of pottery sherds, one samian the rest grey wares including micaceous, found by D Staedman, Sept 1997.
