Full Description

Post medieval ditched rectilinear enclosure, ditches and a bank are visible as earthworks on air photographs, centred at SK5739 8631.

Two ditches run parallel on a north-north west south-south east alignment, spaced approximately 133m apart. To the north a further ditch runs perpendicular to these and is flanked by a rectilinear enclosure at SK 5732 8635. The enclosure is sub-square in form and measures 43m by 45m.

A bank is visible to the north east sharing the same alignment.

It is possible that the features are associated with post medieval ridge and furrow (MNT29230) recorded in the proximity but they may also be more recent in date. (1)
