A surface collection of worked flints and implements was found during and after mechanical stripping of the A2 widening roadworks in 1971. The small collection is unworn, the forms and the patination suggest a Neolithic - Bronze Age date. One piece of pottery could be assigned to this phase due to the wear. (1-2)
