Full Description

Watching brief, test pit 01. A linear ditch was observed, sides almost vertical with a flat base. May have been an old hedge line; however no such boundaries are shown on Sanderson's 1835 map, and no artefacts were recovered. (1)
See L11956 for ditches revealed by geophysical survey, which may include this feature. See L11952 for flints from fieldwalking and cross refs.
