Full Description

{1} NCCAP:SP7266/002+6-11+31+95-7.

{2} The cropmarks are crossed by a series of linear features running NNW-SSE. The latter are difficult to interpret since some appear as broad bands up to 20m wide whereas others are certainly narrow ditches set close together. Their purpose is unknown but they may indicate a field system, the boundaries of which have been re-cut on a number of occasions.
