Full Description
{2} Dallington Heath Complex. Aerial photographs taken over the last two decades have revealed a remarkable complex of cropmark sites in an area of some 150 hectares immediately S.E. of Dallington Heath. The subsoil consists almost entirely of ironstone with a small patch of Lower Estuarine Series deposits at around SP 726636. The complex can at the moment be conveniently divided into four major groups though further photographs may well fill the gaps between these.
