Full Description
{2} Observation indicates that lush vegetation corresponds to aerial photo linear features.
{3} Identified as a possible trackway during trial trench evaluation, since it is comprised of two parallel ditches. Appears to extend further to the north than the cropmarks would suggest. No dating evidence was retrieved from the ditch fills, but were considered to be Iron Age based on their proximity to dated features nearby.
