Banhams' former brick works that once supplied bricks for the many houses and ornamental brick walls in the village. This is also the site where flint axes were first recognised as man-made by John Frere in 1791, made by early Paleolithic man 400,000 years ago. The fabulous Hoxne Hoard of Roman gold and silver coins, jewellery and many precious artefacts was also found close to here in 1992. http://www.manderton.co.uk/eadtwalk/hoxne.htm
