Today we had a youth group from Carhampton out to help with another part of our project. We were working in a field just outside Burton where we were carrying out some field walking; continuing from the section a small group of staff on the Fairfield project had covered on September 19th.

We got the children to help set up the grid from the two baselines I had set up before their arrival..jpg)
After we had part of our grid set up we got the children to walk each grid in pairs putting any finds into a bag. They were very good at spotting finds on the ground.
In the afternoon we went back to Fairfield house and the children washed their finds and we got a good look at the types of finds the field has on its surface. From these results we can work out where to place some test pits when the youth group next come out.
