Title: Re: What do you make of this Post by: Val Beechey on December 04, 2011, 08:17:27 PM Hi Wayno. I know exactly where that is. I've even tried to get permission to goes round it. The Farmer and his wife can be , well lets say, awkward. There's no way they will let you anywhere near it. It's protected and they get an allowance for the field.
It's listed as an enclosure and has been excavated. All they found in it, as far as I know was a hearth and possible evidence of metal working. It's a very interesting area, though, complete with a Roman Road, Medieval, Bronze Age and Iron age settlement and burials.

The red spots mark the fields on the same farm. Went twice and had the cold shoulder the second time I reported in so didn't go again. I know when I'm not welcome.!! :'(

I know the conditions were very dry when I went but I didn't find anything interesting. Val |
