Type and Period (1)
Full Description
{1} An unevenly distributed cluster of small, localised positive anomalies. These are most likely to arise from a group of pits, although a geological cause for such anomalies is also possible. An angled linear anomaly which passes through the same area may represent a ditch; however this runs parallel with medieval ridge and furrow (see below) for much of its course and can only be securely distinguished where it turns south-eastwards and runs obliquely across the furrow direction.
