Common Name: SLD3
SLD3 is a shell midden concentrated on the south side of the road to Perriers Rock. The existing road has already damaged part of the site. The remains of the midden are under dense vegetation, although some of it is visible in areas of sparse vegetation. Several artefacts were recorded at this site. These artefacts included pottery, shell and worked stone. The shell remains consist of P. perna, although other species are bound to be present. No diagnostic sherds were recorded although at least three vessels are visible. A lower grindstone (30cm x 20cm) was recorded on the main site. The main site has an archaeological deposit and probably dates to the Late Iron Age.
