In 1989, late Iron Age and Roman ditches were found at a small gravel extraction site on Bourne Hill. These ditches probably enclosed a settlement. In and next to ditches, archaeologists found two twin-flued Roman pottery kilns, which were in use somewhere between AD 50 and 70. "This is one of the few sites in Britain with good evidence for the production of cups and platters stamped with a maker's mark." Among the finds were pottery (including sherds of late Neolithic Grooved Ware), Iron Age and Roman copper alloy coins, brooches and Saxon strap ends. Some of the products found were of "types unique to Wherstead, including copies of glass bowls, apparently an example of local experimentation stimulated by new Roman material."
