Full Description
{1} Weak positive linear and curvilinear magnetic anomalies which are interpreted as possible soil-filled features. However the nature of these is uncertain.
{2} A single ditch was observed at the northeast trench end. This was visible across the width of the trench (+2m), running northwest-southeast. Its visible width measured 1.lm. No further investigation was carried out.
{3} Pottery dating from the Anglo-Saxon period was recovered, although the ditch could equally be of medieval or later date.
