Full Description

Linear ditches, most of which appear to belong to old hedge lines. The photo also shows other indistinct cropmarks. (1)

Linear features/enclosures along road, appear to be "ribbon development" on NW side of village. Also more marks in the same field (including a ring ditch -L9705). (2)

The features exposed are likely to represent former drainage and boundary features of uncertain, but most likely recent date. (4)
