| Abstract: |
Evidence of Bronze Age occupation was recovered in the form of pottery, charcoal and heat-cracked stones. A saddle quern and part of a jet armlet are likely to be of Iron Age date. Mediaeval activity comprised a substantial earthwork which probably functioned as a sheep-fold. A post-medieval silver button and a brass shoe-buckle were also recovered. |
