Description

In 1960, drainage by the farmer of a piece of marshy ground revealed a substantial deposit of late thirteenth to fourteenth century pottery of a type produced in large quantities in kilns of that period found at Halstead, Gosfield and Sible Hedingham. There is no evidence in this case as to whether this new site should be regarded as domestic or industrial.
