Full Description

Magnetic susceptibility and magnetometry surveys. A complex series of linear anomalies representing large and small rectilinear enclosure ditches which extend across the whole of the magnetometer survey area. There are numerous indications of subdivisions, and many of the enclosures contain both individual and groupings of pit forms, the largest of which are 4 - 5m in diameter. What may be structural elements are present within at least one of the enclosures. (1)
See L11951, L11955 for Ro pottery, L11954 for excavated ditch which may be one of these features.
