Full Description
Linear features, forming at least one (possibly 3) rectangular enclosure(s). (1)
Morph: 88.3.1 (2)
[In the southern half] a series of well-defined ditch-like responses, trends, pits and circular responses have been detected which have been assigned to the categories of Probable and Possible Archaeological in accordance with their magnetic strengths. The anomalies appear to be a complex of enclosures; perhaps marking the location of a small farmstead. (3)
50m to the north of these anomalies are other trends which appear to form rectangular patterns within which is a possible ring-ditch. The anomalies are magnetically weak but do appear to be anthropogenetic in origin. (3)
