Full Description

{2} Undated ditches are visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs and were mapped as part of the Bedford Borough NMP project. It is possible that some of the ditches are prehistoric in date related to past human activity but one of the south-east orientated ditches seem associated with early 20th century ironstone quarry activities
