Full Description

Cropmarks of droveways, field systems and enclosures (S1).
Main E-W track / droveway leading to valley, with linking trackway to SE. Appears to be associated with field boundaries to the east. These partially overlain by darker field boundaries. Also a trapezoidal/sub-rectangular enclosure, circa 35 by 17m, with entrance to NW, possibly within a larger 60 by 35m sub-rectangular enclosure. A second fainter rectangular enclosure of 35m by 25m occurs further to the NW. Cropmarks appear to extend to field to SE.
Note further enclosures to the SW (see HNY 010).
Note finds of palstave (HNY 026), worked flints and Roman pottery from same area (see Portable Antiquities Scheme database entries).
2010: partly investigated by Mel Birch and other members of the Suffolk Institute of Archaeology & History - details outstanding.
