Full Description
{2} Geophysical survey was undertaken in 2018. Two rectilinear anomalies of definite archaeological interest have been identified in the northeastern portion of the survey area, one seemingly crossing the other. Given their form, it is likely that they are part of a complex of enclosures; further detailed survey to the east was limited by the bounds of the developable area.
