Abstract:		 A small excavation was carried out at a site identified by Iron Age pottery and burnt flint eroding from the tidal margin. A single early Iron Age feature, part of a small pit (possibly an evaporation pan) was found. This contained pottery, charcoal and a few briquetage fragments, the latter suggest the production of salt from sea-water at the site. Unexpectedly, large numbers of worked flints were also found; the commonest implement types were various forms of scraper, particularly notched or concave. This unusual flint assemblage is dated to the Neolithic, and is interpreted as evidence of exploitation of salt-marsh resources at that time.
