Pond Plantation, Thirlings Cropmarks of six rectangular buildings were discovered by aerial photography at Thirlings. Excavations between 1973 and 1981 found they were built of timber and were similar to others found in the area that dated to the sixth or seventh centuries. Finds including an Anglo-Saxon knife and pottery suggest that this was a small Anglo-Saxon settlement although Neolithic pottery was also found.
