Low Marnham Church occupies an elevated site. Stone lumps seen in the trench section close to the N side of the churchyard were suspected to be within a substantial dumped deposit interpreted as an artificial mound. The church may have been built on this apparently contemporary mound but there is no evidence that the site was not naturally on higher ground. (3)
