Description
Four trenches measuring 30m long by 1.8m wide were excavated using a 360 degree mechanical excavator fitted with a toothless ditching bucket. A professional metal detectorist was used to scan the trench locations prior and post excavation along with the spoil heaps. All stratigraphic layers were scanned for metal and non-metal finds.
