Full Description
LATE ROMANO-BRITISH SITE SEEN AFTER DEEP PLOUGHING AT TURPIN FARM, FILLINGHAM IN 1936. EARLIER THOUGHT MEDIEVAL. {1}{2}
IN 1964 HARPER REPORTED THAT THE FARM FOREMAN (AND LATER ESTATE MANAGER) HAD PLOUGHED UP POT FRAGMENTS FROM 1936 ONWARDS IN THIS AREA. AN ABUNDANCE OF STONE IN THE FIRST FEW YEARS SUGGESTED A SETTLEMENT SITE. HE RETAINED SAMPLES OF POTTERY ONLY LONG ENOUGH FOR ETHEL RUDKIN TO IDENTIFY AS ROMANO-BRITISH. NO FINDS HAD BEEN MADE IN RECENT YEARS. {1}{4}, HTM 11M
