Full Description
A single redeposited flint was found in this area in December 2015, during trial trenching on land off Gainsborough Road. The flint appeared to have broken during its initial working, being the distal end of a struck blank. Whilst not closely dateable, the technological attributes of the flint suggest it is of late prehistoric origin. {1}{2}
