‘Observation 7: SY 74458743 (Fig. 1). A small quantity (49 sherds/636g) of late medieval and post-medieval pottery was recovered from the south-east corner of a large field to the south of Tadnoll Brook. The material appears to range in date from the 15th to 18th centuries but may include two pieces of Romano-British coarse ware. No associated deposits or features were identified during pipeline construction works.’
