Full Description

{1} Aerial photos NCCAP: SP7448/3-4+6.

{2} On either side of the subsidiary hollow way (cf. 5460/0/1) there are mutilated closes bounded by low banks and scarps; at least one of these banks crosses the hollow-way and thus must be later than it. To the west of the main drive to Stoke Park House are further slight earthworks, but these have been so reduced by modern ploughing that little of their original form can be ascertained.
