Full Description

NF71SE 12 798 143.

Coring produced midden deposits in a limited area about 50m by 30m in the SE of a grass plateau being eroded by the sea. These deposits were examined a nd found to be fragmentary. Although Beaker pottery had been found on the site it seems probable that the features observed were of post-medieval date.
