Description
1999-2000. 'Othona' environs project: fieldwalking survey.
A small quantity of struck flint was recovered during the extensive fieldwalking survey, mainly from an area to the South of the Roman fort (EHER 31), and none during the intensive survey. Two undiagnostic sherds of prehistoric pottery were found in the NW part of the area and a slight concentration of burnt flint, 200m West of the fort, might indicate prehistoric activity. <1>
