Notes about this historic site

1 (Marginal). A gentleman of Leamington, in a communication to the present writer, records the discovery of a Palaeolithic flake in river gravel at Walton. Other flint implements were also found in the same gravel, and presumably they were also of the Palaeolithic age, but unfortunately they are now lost.
2 Dating given as probably Lower Palaeolithic.
