Full Description

Two curvilinear anomalies of weak response are noted in the southwest corner of the site and likely denote a former boundary. A weak circular anomaly is also incorporated into overall morphology, suggesting a singular feature. Furthermore, three anomalies of similar morphologies are noted 34 m northwest on a broadly parallel alignment,
suggesting an unrecorded area of land division within the historical landscape, though an exact date of origin cannot be currently inferred.

A singular, weakly positive, linear anomaly is visible in the northwest corner of the site. Its morphology is characteristic of a boundary ditch, although its somewhat isolated located within the dataset and lack of clear associated anomalies precludes an accurate interpretation. It is plausible that it is the result of a modern agricultural activity
