Full Description

Ring ditch in centre of field W of Foss Way. (1)
With what looks like an enclosure nearby (to the W) and some straight ditches to the E. (2)
This site falls in a field that is still under sugar beet, and perambulation was not possible. (3)
Several linear ditches, incorporating a probable ditched trackway to the E - part of a fragmentary field system ? Suggestions of a complex pattern of linear enclosures - cropmarks poorly defined. May extend to Fosse Way. (4)
See L8476-81for cropmarks to N, L3661 to W, L5803 for nearby circle.
