Other Local Finds

Other local finds

BENENDEN - A bronze age axe found during the building of the chest hospital in the 1930s.
GOUDHURST - A hoard of 8 bronze age axes found in the late 1800s.
HEADCORN - A bronze age axe found by a Metal detectorist.
FLIMWELL - A bronze age axe found near a spring.

If you have found or know of any other Neolithic, Bronze age, Iron age or Roman finds from Hawkhurst or the surrounding villages please feel free to contact me. Bronze age finds are sparse in the weald & so far these are the only bronze age finds from the area so any other finds are important to help build a picture of life in the weald.
