Full Description
{1} Geophysical survey identified poorly diagnostic linear anomalies which may be ditches but may equally represent field drains, plough marks or other non-archaeological features.
{1} MOLA undertook a geophysical survey in 2023. It detected anomalies that could potentially be archaeological, possibly ditches, pits and a roundhouse. These anomalies are only possible traces and are too disjointed to be certain that they are of a archaeological nature.
