Earlier today Cru'dad went around to the farmer who owned the field where we recently got the Treasure item (Roman Silver Pin) to inform him about it. Whilst there he found out that the Field of 500 was now drilled with oilseed rape & so he asked what was left. The Bag Seal City Field was available but we had covered all the Roman Site, so he decided to do outside of the site for just a quick hour. He got 2 hammered (from an area we had never had any), so when he phoned me about it, we decided to hunt the last 2 hours of light & ended up with:
3 Scrappies
Great Northern Railway Button
17th C Button
Tudor Button
17th C Spur Buckle
Jetton
Tudor Knife Terminal
1889 Chester Silver Thimble
4 Hammered:
Nice Penny of Ed I (laying on top), & 1 grotty one
Lizzy I Halfgroat
Edward III? Penny
Dug tons of junk, but pretty pleased with a strong hammered finish for Aug.
I think this area was a late Victorian allotments that continued into the 20th C.
