Archaeology Notes

NX08SE 14 0865 8266.

(NX 0865 8266) A few flints have been found exposed by weathering in the face of the cutting beside the farm road and about 2ft below the level of the field.

A F Gray 1956

The cutting is on the edge of an old coastal scarp and is largely grassed over, but where eroded the flint and gravel matrix produced no definite examples of flintworking. The field above the cutting is under grass.

Visited by OS (JRL) 17 March 1977
