Brooch Field - Day 3 - Finished...

CRUSADER · Jan 18, 2020

Spent a nice sunny day finishing off the Brooch Field Site. Although we didn't get anything too special, I'm pleased we done it in readiness for the next deep plough. We have pretty much taken off everything including the iron, that's in range.
5 hrs 15 mins;

13 Scrappies
Broken 14th C Medieval Buckle
Roman Nail Cleaner (type that hung on a brooch)

I am always SO jealous of the finds in England and other European Countries. Historically speaking, we are just babes in the US. Great finds!

That brooch hanging nail cleaner is a first for me. Nail cleaner are extremely rare in our fields. Almost looks like your romans spend more time with their personel hygiene than ours here..... :tongue3:

I suspect this place is a Roman Brothel that serviced a Roman Hotel for Roman Military staff & Officals. (which is on the opposite side of a main Roman Road)

Yes, the HF coil. I'm still trialling it, but I think it will be used on the sites that I have 'cleared' the most. As my 11" will cover more area in a shorter amount of time.
