Description
| Intermittent concentrations of stone are visible beneath a deep covering of ploughsoil in a coastal exposure which extends for about 15m. The stones all lie at about the same level and may be part of a laid surface. The stones lie over an old ground surface. They are covered by smaller stones and rubble, which has the appearance of a destruction horizon. Lenses of yellow clay were noted in association with the larger stones which occur to the north end of the exposure. The soil which covers this rubble contains occasional lenses and flecks of charcoal. These deposit may be part of a larger archaeological site and should be assessed and kept under surveillance. |
