Full Description

Two post-medieval ditches and a possible medieval posthole were revealed during an archaeological evaluation. One of the ditches matches the alignment of a field boundary on the 1st edition OS map 1886 and contained two small pieces of post-medieval CBM. The posthole contained a fragment of 13th-15th century roof tile. The second ditch did not align with any mapping evidence (S1).
