Description

In May, 1988 Daryl Garton supervised fieldwalking of most of the cropmark complex, in a series of transects spaced 5m apart…. The weathered field surface was clearly visible through a low crop growth and, although walked in sunlight, conditions were satisfactory for the recognition of surface finds. (1) See E290, E609 and E611 for further events in this area.
