Description
While a few fragments of medieval pottery were recovered and may point to possible activity on the site in the medieval period, 19th century buildings have truncated any earlier archaeological remains which might have been present. A small civil air-raid shelter built into the mound directly opposite East Cottages, which dated from c. 1940 contained some graffiti dating from its original period of use.
