Description

{1} Features were traced from the different representations and computations of the LiDAR data. Following the initial identification of features, the site was visited and a walkover undertaken, to validate where possible the interpretations made. Six areas of ridge and furrow strips are identified. Additionally two headlands (large ridges forming at the junction of differently aligned strips), a possible holloway on the eastern side of the fields, and a probable quarry hole are identified. Several further small negative features were also identified.
