Full Description

Linear feature runs northeast to southwest, not quite parallel to adjacent road. The parish boundary is not apparent on historic OS mapping of the region, so may be of pre-19th century in date. Steep stepped sides and concave base, with five natural fills.
L: 1.9m (width of bucket); W 1.8m; D: 0.7m
