Full Description

{1} Two ring ditches photographed in July 1969 by N.Cross of UNAS.

{2} Mention has been made of two ring ditches photographed by N.Cross. One of these is almost certainly the remains of a windmill (R.M.Taylor).

{3} Air photos are said to show the cropmarks of two ring ditches. A later authority has suggested that one of these is the site of a windmill, but this is doubtful.
