We had thought they might be acorns, but on a closer look I'm not sure about the structure. Any suggestions would be very gratefully received. Apologies for the quality of the photos - I just dashed them off on my phone! Thank you, Karen Stewart. <https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=09684cf15e&view=att&th=147f39be51d72e6a&attid=0.1&disp=safe&realattid=f_hz2p34qk0&zw> This e-mail (and any attachments) is confidential and may contain personal views which are not the views of English Heritage unless specifically stated.
