Full Description
2014: An archaeological evaluation revealed six undated ditches across the site. All these features had either peaty or organic rich silty fills suggesting that water had stood in these ditches when they were open. Three of these ditches appeared to be at right-angles to a large post-medieval bank and ditch running east to west across the southern edge of the site. Other ditches were on different alignments and were probably part of an earlier system. It is probable that the ditches were associated with land drainage or stock management (S1).
