Although I'm calling this Day 4, they have done more digging days than this, so this is just the days that I have visited.
The rubble has extended much further than we expected & nearly takes up half of the trench. What is odd, is that at the most interesting end where they have punched through a layer of rubble, there seems to be a disturbed layer underneath that has less rubble in it. Anyways we need to get deeper.
Yesterday we had 8 volunteer Archies!
I spent 3 hours doing the spoil & I picked up another 2 scrappies in the area around the trench. I was also given the only scrappy to come out of the trench so that Dad & I could ID & record it with the British Museum. (It's a Emperor leaning on shield)
One end has a post hole with the post still in it & it goes real deep! (we think it might be Georgian!)
