Description

{1} The archaeological remains likely relate to the early medieval settlement of Crick and comprised a ladder system of hollow ways with housing platforms either side. The site had undergone some disturbance after it fell out of use; there are a number of depressions which relate to extraction or might be tree throws. The reinstatement of the site following the construction of an unauthorised BMX track was not visible.
