{2} A broad hollow way, 1m deep, extends for 130m and then forks. The east branch runs for 140m before fading out. The south west branch extends beyond the county boundary into Buckinghamshire. At the extreme south of the site, in Buckinghamshire, on either side of the hollow way there are large areas of stone rubble and medieval and post-medieval pottery, associated with several ponds and depressions. This is the site of a building called Chantry House which still stood in the 19th century.
