Log Text: To the Archaeology tutor and his faithful 'pupils' - your perseverance and tenacity (in 1972) paid off (see site narrative) - I hope Severn-Trent Water Board (thus they are now known) need to refurbish pipes etc again and that people of your calibre are brought in to investigate - pity about the reservoirs - they are a dreadful eyesore

Farmcote gatepost submitted by h_fenton on 31st Aug 2008. An old stone gatepost(?- no hinges) at Farmcote in Gloucestershire (Cotswolds near Winchcombe).
