Description

Geophysical survey was conducted on c15ha of land at Pury End. The survey detected several ditches that may form two separate enclosures as well as a possible field system. Several pit-like features were also detected, many concentrated in clusters. It also appears that most of the survey area has been truncated by post-medieval quarrying.
