Interesting the comment about deep archaeology. We have two burnt mounds in one field, and the bronze age layer is literally just below the grass roots, about two or three inches down. They found one mound just by pushing the spade in as they were walking along and it grated on the stones of the mound

Everything else, from bronze age upwards is in the turf so a second world war .50 cal round lies next to a bit of early medieval horse tack  :)
