24 October 2013, Ulley Roman Project Day 11

We had a brilliant day today, weather-wise! The sun shone, there was no wind and it seemed to attract the volunteers as we had over twenty people drop in on the site throughout the day.


However, Christine had to be off site due to a family issue, so we were unable to continue the geophysical survey today, but the amount of people on site meant that we could do loads of field walking!


Again, the finds are the usual mix of medieval and post-medieval with no Roman. But Brian did find this lovely flint flake during the surface collection.


Here are a few of today's visitors, we had a bunch from the Brinsworth History Society and others from the Rotherham Archaeological Society and the Dearne Valley Archaeology Group! This project is mixing the groups really well!


It certainly looks like we will be going into next week, just to finish the geophysical survey off at least, so stay tuned!!
