Full Description
Located in the eastern half of one area, a large grouping of linear, curvilinear, rectilinear and discrete anomalies have been detected. These anomalies exhibit both strong and weak positive magnetic signals and exhibit clearly defined edges. The morphology of these anomalies is indicative of possible enclosure systems and their relationship and proximity to one another possibly indicates a multiphase settlement system. However, these anomalies are all somewhat obscured by extant ridge and furrow regimes running through them.
Located c. 38m east of these anomalies on the eastern border of the area, a small grouping of linear and curvilinear anomalies has been detected. These anomalies also exhibit strong and weak positive magnetic responses with clearly defined edges. The close proximity of these anomalies with the possible enclosure system, likely indicates they are related or an extension of the settlement activity to the west.
