Monument record 849/0/15 - Geological features, originally thought to represent plot boundaries

Geophysical survey identified anomalies of potential archaeological oigin. However, subsequent trial trench evaluation showed that they were of geological origin.

{1} Two weak positive linear anomalies, aligned north west to south east, possibly indicate buried ditches. These may represent the boundary ditches of medieval plots, associated with The Green, which may have extended into the survey area.

{2} No archaeological deposits or artefacts were encountered - all of the geophysical anomalies were shown to relate to modern structures or geological features.
