Full Description

{1} Rectilinear positive anomalies that reflect possible ditched enclosures adjacent the watercourse. A broad geological anomaly divides these enclosures which either respect the edge of it or the anomalies are subsumed by it. Two linear anomalies align north to south up to a former north-west — south-east field boundary.

{4} Where excavated, some of these features proved to be furrows and a service trench.
