Full Description

Linear anomalies have been recorded throughout which have an uncertain origin.

Whilst an archaeological origin is preferred, a geological origin is also possible. One anomaly is very straight and an agricultural origin may be more likely for this. Given the putative evidence for the deserted medieval village of Normanton in Bothamsall, these features could be part of a wider agricultural landscape from this period.
