Full Description

A series of parallel north-south gullies was observed. These gullies were spaced at approximately 1m intervals and defy interpretation; they are too round and wide for plough scars and too close together to be the remnants of drains. These gullies were all similar and three slots were recorded from one of the gullies. One gully was 39m long, 0.43m wide and 0.06m deep, with a mid greyish brown silty sand fill. Post medieval pottery and clay pipe from these features was bagged along with topsoil finds.
