Notes about this historic site
1 An archaeological observation at Rugby Cement Works, Lodge Farm, Long Lawford, adjacent to a later Prehistoric or Roman settlement cropmark, revealed a possible former field boundary together with evidence of a Medieval ridge and furrow agricultural field system. A scatter of flint from the topsoil of the observed area and over the cropmark suggested some Mesolithic activity in the general area.
