Day 9 - a little Treasure

Young Ed has found the metal detector. Watch out Mum and Dad Treasure as he will be practising with it at home this weekend. Just as well he is our agricultural expert, which makes him well placed to identify all the bits of broken machinery that seem to have been abandoned in part of the field.

Trench 4 is immaculately clean and ready for recording, thanks to the patient work of Jay, Charlene, Debbie, Rosie and Richard, but then it got bigger again so they will need to do a bit more. There is little in the way of finds, but the structure of the building is being resolved metre by metre.

Trench 3 is also growing. The structural features repeat themselves at this level and suggest that we may be near the bottom corner. It is tempting to get even wider to take in the return of the wall and also to find out what is happening to the floor levels within the building.

As week two is drawing to a close there are still lots of questions to keep us busy next week.

Diggers today - Jemma, Jan, Charlene, Jay, Ed, Debbie, Mike, Nigel
