Short Evening Scout - Viking & Hammered...

[CRUSADER]

Cru'dad & I decided to do a short 1.5 hour hunt before last light. The field we decided on is a massive one with 3 Sites on it - A Roman Site, 'The Trackway Site' & 'The Hill' Site which are mostly Saxon. I wanted to stay off the well gridded areas & try the slope below the Trackway Site.
Paid off, pretty well:

1 Scrappy
Tudor Button
1788-1800 Officers silver plated IV Queens Own Dragoon's Button
Cut half penny (Short-cross hammered)
A Viking Fitment (type I've not seen, but has the right metal type & hidden beast faces)

One of the reasons for the scout was because I plan to take a visitor on it & wanted to make sure it was worth it.

Well done....but if I were your visitor I would be satisfied with just a few of your scrappies. I hope you guys come away with more goodies

You didn't had many Viking items this year, i hope you get some more with Viking activity there!

We have had some Viking pieces from around 'The Trackway' but the most impressive was on the nearby Hill Site:

I'll take them on the nearby Roman Site first, to see if we can start that way...

Well done on the short hunt, I think the visitor would be right pleased with finds that mirrored this hunt.
