Notes about this historic site

1 Stone adze or hammer, 17.5 cm long, in Warwick Museum, labelled ‘from the millpond of the Priory, 1885’. The perforation is of hourglass type and a Neolithic date was suggested.
2 JMM located the findspot as SP2865.
3 Perforated adze or hammer. Group XV (1/ah).
6 There is some confusion as it appears that the find has probably been catalogued twice as A1 and A1726.
