Full Description

{1} Cropmarks, indistinct and possibly geological. Also a possible small ring ditch. NCCAP:SP7159/007.

{2} Section through ditch located by aerial photography.

{3} Given their apparent spacing and form, these cropmakrs could be ridge and furrow, or they could be a seris of drains terminating in the brook to the north of the mill race which would suggest a post medieval origin.
