Full Description

{1} A group of linear boundaries and a small animal pen probably formed part of an adjacent field system.

{2} A positive curvilinear anomaly with a second parallel anomaly along part of its length. A further positive magnetic lineation and a rectangular anomaly appear to repsect the second anomaly thereby suggesting the the three features are contemporary. The geomagnetic characteristics of these features suggest they are ditches and a detailed examination suggests that the linear feature is a ditched trackway and the rectangular feature an enclosed plot.
