Full Description
Monitoring of groundworks at Windmill Cottage revealed two large ditches. Both of the ditches were aligned north/south and contained small quantities of struck and burnt flint. One of the struck flint was determined to be a by-product of medieval or post-medieval wall dressing. The find and the ditch alignments, parallel to the current boundaries, suggest that these ditches are of medieval or post-medieval date rather than prehistoric (S1).
