Full Description
This site is that of a Romano-British settlement but tentative evidence of medieval and later activity in the area has been identified. The area is almost completely under crop but slight surface disturbances are visible, generally ditches and some ridge and furrow ploughing. No finds of any consequence were made, and the farmer knows only of a George III penny, a trade token and 'old drain tiles'.{1}
Pottery found here includes medieval and post medieval including Nottingham Pale and a stoneware rim.{2}
