Full Description
Rectangular feature. 2 linear features crossing. (1)
The area covered by these marks is mainly under cereal crop with the occasional pasture break. A lengthy perambulation was completed but no surface finds of note were made, the crop, though windswept, has a fairly constant height. The tenant farmer has no knowledge of the markings and knows of no finds. The area has an open aspect, is situated above and adjacent to the Trent flood plains and the linear ditches almost certainly indicate IA/Ro occupation. (2)
Morph: 191.7.1 settlement, 191.7.2 road, Ro settlement. (3)
