Full Description

{1} A sub-rectangular enclosure fits almost exactly into the boundary of the field and may therefore be a feature contemporary with the field such as a horse gallop. It appears white on RAF verticals of 1947.

{2} This enclosure fits almost exactly into the field, and on the 1947 AP's it appears white (poss exposed chalk?). It is almost certainly recent.

[3} A horse gallop.
