Full Description
Three sides of a rectilinear enclosure, plus other indeterminate cropmarks showing in an arable crop. Further features were recorded by CFA while conducting a watching brief on the Transco pipeline in 2004. These were subsequently excavated, but no features or artefacts of archaeological interest were found. The features responsible for the cropmarks were not located and it is probable that these were of geological origin.
