Description
{1} Magnetometer survey of approximately 2.5ha of land was carried out. The two northerly fields were found to contain nothing of archaeological interest. However, a curving and a linear ditch were located in Field E. In addition, rectilinear anomalies were detected north of the curved ditch, possibly geological features rather than archaeological. A recently removed paddock boundary was also identified.
