There's a Roman villa just off pic top right, a part brick was found there in the late 80s with the thumb print of the brickmaker.

Not sure that barrow if it is one would be unrecorded, it is inside the WHS and EH aerial photographers are tops (they found another long barrow recently.... Shhhh!).


Objection M'lud, that is not proof that he was the actual brickmaker. He may have been a cat burglar on a hot tin roof stealing a hot brick and when he fell through said roof dropped the brick leaving his print in it. I rest my case :-)

The barrow sounds interesting, any more clues as to its whereabouts?


He signed his name on the corner, I think it was Art Isan...

Re the other thing, yes I do know where it is, but sorry it isn't my story to tell. They that found it and have done the graft and rely on funding must be able to have their day in the Sun (or the Waggon & Horses).


That's good, they can excavate the EKLB now before it's wrecked any further by trees and badgers and keep the 'spare' one for later :-)
