While
the Bronze Age occupation seems to belong to the Early and Middle
Bronze Ages (before about 1250 BC), we have some evidence for
continuing activity at the cave. At some point, a shallow pit was
dug into the top of the talus and a few objects dropped into it.
They include part of a broken Bronze Age macehead that has been
reground, although we do not know why, and a scrap of pottery
that does not appear to be Bronze Age. It resembles Early Iron
Age pottery (c 800-400 BC) in the region.
Whether this was part of a continuing occupation at the cave or evidence for nothing more than a brief visit to the site, we cannot yet say.
