 Remember researching a Roman gateway , a billion troops had gone along this stretch of whatever , losing coins, the odd weapon I’d guess, buckles etc...
I hammered this site for weeks only finding odd scrap,
This old boy walking his dog cane over to me one day and said ‘ this was the county’s dump for 50 years ‘ :))
ive spent bit of a mind bending day researching the GHQ Blue line and post war mini bunkers ROC lol .and Orlit A posts.its not MD related but just something ive suddenly became interested in...which is far removed from my other history interests lol as WW2 and post..hasn't really been much on my radar before.we are planning a little adventure visiting a few of the sites.in the next few weeks. :)
