Full Description

Rectangular enclosure on linear feature and other indistinct features - occupation overlying an earlier ditch running ESE-WNW ? (1)
The marks form a group of random irregular shapes divided by a firm straight line that is almost certainly modern, and are bounded on the S by ploughed out ridge and furrow. They are located on an isolated area of gravelly soil. The farmer said because of this gravel he is able to get vehicles on the land in the wet winter months and frequently dumps farmyard manure here. Nothing of interest was found. (2)
Morph: 201.7.1 enclosure, 201.7.2 enclosure, 201.7.3 enclosure, 201.7.4 enclosure, UP settlement. (3)
