Context (Other)
Leaf refers to gravel diggings close to the Bronze Age barrows at Chippenham, just over the border from Freckenham, in his two publications on those excavations (PCAS vol. 36, p. 149 and PCAS vol. 39, p. 60), which may relate to this site. See also the annotated site plan in the archive (GO2/12/18).
