There is a good deal of lead slag a few roof tiles, both clay and stone, loads of brick and lots of mortar. The stuff here is much more like building rubble than the other places we've excavated so far.
Anyway, this is what we found....
The door step is substantial; 4 feet wide and chunky! It's well worn being smooth and rounded on the outside and inside edges. It was quite a feeling standing there thinking that probably no one has stood there for 200 years and 250 years ago Joseph Whitfield would have been regularly crossing the threshold during his daily visits to the mill.
