Densest concentration in an area roughly 800m square in corner of field. The s half of the site has been ploughed only once in recent years and was then the subject of only limited fieldwalking. It appears however, that the concentration here mirrors that to the n, but an important part of the site has been destroyed by a telephone exchange which it is proposed to extend. The 2 fields have produced c 11,700 artefacts (berridge).
