Full Description
{2} On either side of the hollow way (34/0/8) are earthworks, very disturbed, but with some indications that there was formerly a series of closes bounded by low scarps. A number of large depressions may represent former buildings.
{3} All the earthworks were already abandoned by the mid 19th century.
{4} To the south of the hollow way are less easily interpreted earthworks which may prove to be quarries rather than occupation remains.
