Notes about this historic site

1A pit of Early/Middle Bronze Age date was recorded during trial trenching at Old Farm Road, Mancetter. This represented the first evidence for activity of this date in this part of Warwickshire. The pit contained 113 sherds of Early/Middle Bronze Age pottery, possibly from a single vessel. Assessment of the pottery suggested that the vessel represented either a late Collared Urn, or perhaps one of a series of Bucket/Barrel or Cordoned Urns of the early Bronze Age. It probably dated to between 1800 and 1200 Cal BC.
