Yes, I know several people with one of those...

It really does look fascinating, I'm sure there is a lot more to come from that site.

So many juicy targets.  Where to start?  I would be tempted by the juxta position of the aisled building and potential chapel to check for AS continuity.   And I'd have to section that square ditch to get a date on it to check for continuity at the early end.
