Full Description
{2} The previously surveyed field lying to the west of the modern drive leading to Chester Farm (Fig 2, D), is notable for containing rectilinear enclosures orientated south-west to north-east. The current survey has identified a linear ditch orientated north-west to south-east, lying to the immediate east of the drive (Fig 7, D5), which could be the eastern side of the enclosures previously identified. A further ditched enclosure (Fig 7, E3) appears to extend north-eastward from ditch D5, but an eastern side was not recorded.
