Full Description
{3} Three rectangular closes separated by low banks and ditches and bounded on the north by a well-marked bank and outer ditch, beyond which lies ridge and furrow. The interior of the closes is disturbed by later gravel pits, but traces of former buildings lie at their south ends. Massive stone-rubble foundations are also exposed in the side of the stream and hollow way. In addition pottery, mainly post medieval but including some of the C14th/15th has been found here.
