Royal Engineers badge..

[blossom]

Managed a quick swing this evening and up popped this Royal Engineers badge.. not sure of the date yet, still checking, plus the usual buttons and musket balls and a piece of metal pot maybe?

Found some pottery on the surface and nearly tripped over this big ole square of iron, so brought it home, because all metal matters 😆 x

Looks like a GR and with the buttons and musket balls, I think it could date to the War of 1812. What does the back look like? But I'm no expert on Canadian insignia. Really nice find

Pic of back added… mine has quite thick attachments compared with the ones on line? (Circled in yellow) hence Unsure of date! 🤔

I noticed the roman numeral V in the center of the GR...that denotes King George the fifth so the badge will date to the time around WWll

Neat find...keep them coming Blossom!

Misplaced Late Medieval Hamlet...

The last Roman Site we were on wasn't producing enough so this nearby option seemed the next best try. It's a small Late Medieval Hamlet that the Historic Record had in the wrong field. A couple of years back we proved our theory with all the evidence you would expect to find associated with...
