Abstract:		 The fieldwork area consisted of twelve hectares of arable land beside the River Great Ouse in the parish of Hockwold cum Wilton. The site lay on the southern tip of a large sandhill on the edge of the black peat fen; such sandhills have been a focus of human activity since the Mesolithic period and are rich in prehistoric flint, stone and copper alloy artefacts. A fieldwalking and metal detector survey of the site produced flint tools of Mesolithic, Neolithic and Bronze Age date; Bronze age, Saxon and Medieval pottery and a cast copper alloy axe of the early Bronze Age were found. Excavation showed no evidence for surviving prehistoric features
