Monument record 1588/0/5 - Possible undated pits and ditches

Three clusters of possible pits and several possible ditches were detected during geophysical survey

{1} The survey has detected a number of small, sub-circular positive anomalies that may represent pits. These are positioned in three clusters, one near to the north-western edge of Field 5 and two clusters along the western edge of Field 6. Between the clusters in Field 6 there is a short curvilinear anomaly perhaps representing the partial remains of a ditch. A second curvilinear feature appears faintly and fragmented near to the southern boundary of the survey area and may represent another archaeological feature.
A further two linear anomalies have been detected. One of these is aligned north-northeast to south-south-west and is located to the north-east of Field 6. A shorter linear anomaly is present in Field 5 aligned north-east to south-west, positioned to the north of the field. These two linear anomalies are likely to represent sections of ditch; possibly two portions of the same one.
