Full Description
{1} Geophysical survey identified two positive linear anomalies aligned north-west to south-east. The anomalies are likely to be infilled ditches; their location suggesting they may have served as drainage channels for the ponds to the north-west.
Some of the further weak anomalies to the north may be sections of ditch or gully, although most are thought to be natural in origin.
