A quantity of late bronze age pottery found across the evaluation site. It was found in association with charcoal deposits and two fragments of possible querns or rubbers. (1-3)
The pottery came from test pit 2018, and trenches 2019, 2020 and 1291. Possible prehistoric sherds also came from trenches 1014, 1236 and 1287 but these sheds were very small so dating is uncertain (3)
