Full Description

{1} Two large parallel east-west ditches suggested an east-west trackway or droveway. Substantial ditches marked both the north and southern boundaries of this feature, and there was evidence that the droveway had been re-cut on at least one occasion. Middle to late Iron Age pottery was recovered from the ditches.
