Full Description

2001: Monitoring, prior to development, revealed large cut feature on line of former mapped boundary.
South side of large cut linear feature (ditch?), probably of Medieval or Post Medieval date, which ran along the same line as a boundary marked on the 1885 OS maps. There were no finds but it was sealed beneath a probable 19th century chalk surface which may also have respected this boundary. Details in (S1).
