Bray, Berkshire, 3/11/1963
Day in the pit of Hoveringham Gravel Co., looking for Neolithic levels. Unsuccessful, but found known Iron Age site and medieval leather shore in the black layer just above the water table.
Bray, Berkshire, 17/11/1963
Tried to examine the Iron Age levels which Mr T P F Trudgian had exposed and the grab driver had kindly avoided, but heavy rain made me give up. 12'X12' box showed a cobbled surface at one end, a post hole (?) only 6" deep and bones and sherds in silt. A small trial hole dug by Mr Trudgian revealed part of a human parietal bone. Only had time to dig round this area with a spade but it was not a burial; several animal bones with the skull fragment and nothing else human.
