Full Description
{1} A short stretch of earthwork bank and shallow ditch was located along the northern boundary of the survey area. Its full extent and character could not be seen in the thick undergrowth.
{4} The boundary is marked on First Edition OS mapping of the 1880s, and thus predates the C20th parkland.
