Full Description
Rom pottery kiln found in drain cutting in farmyard by C Cook. Pottery sherds and kiln wrappings found in black earth at a depth of 1 foot 3 inches. Traces only of the kiln sides remaining. Further pottery was collected in 1965 from same site (S1)(S2)(S3)(S4).
In May 1957, J W Blake found an antoninianus of Maximinus, AD 305-313, "120 feet from kiln in farmyard" (S1)(S5)(S4).
Basil Brown's map in site file gives TM 0180 7495 for the kiln and TM 026 762 for the coin but neither of these is near the farmyard at Beech Tree Farm. The grid reference given here is IPSMG information (S2).
