Full Description
{1} A linear anomaly parallel to the ridge and furrow to the north but marking the boundary with a more north-south pattern to the south. The positive response suggests a ditched feature and probably reflects a former field boundary preserving part of the layout of medieval furlongs.
{2} The boundary separates areas of ridge and furrow that are aligned aproximately north-south to the south of the ditch and east-west to the north of it.
