Full Description

{2} More definite remains of the east end of the village lie further north-east on either side of the Church Brampton to East Haddon road. To the south of the road the north end of the earlier green appears as a scarp 1.5m high. Parts of the south side are visible and so is part of the track, now a short length of hollow way, which led to Spratton. North of the modern road and now partly destroyed by ploughing are fragments of two other hollow ways, one is part of the Spratton track, the other is the north part of the track to Church Brampton. Earthwork plan.
