Full Description
{1} Two sides of a rectilinear enclosure visible as a cropmark. Appears to be a conjoining enclosure to the north (5515/0/10).
{2} Ditch identified during trial trench excavation seems to form part of an enclosure or boundary visible in the geophysics results. It was 3.2m wide, 1.10m deep and seemed to have silted up over a considerable time.
