Full Description

5 ring ditches or parts thereof. 3 small linear features, subrectangular enclosure. Possibly overlaid ridge and furrow. (1)
Lies on the line of a now removed field boundary. A very slight elevation (0.1m max) can be seen in the area. The field is at present stubble but perambulation produced nothing of interest. (2)
Southern ring ditch (in field SK 72824032) revealed no finds. Others in field to N were not possible to walk. (3)
Morph: 216.2.1 unknown prehistoric ditch. (4)
SK 74 SW 40 records this at SK 728 417, but is plainly in error.
See L1482-4 for neighbouring cropmarks.
