Full Description

Cropmarks of undated linear ditches are visible on aerial photographs (S1) on land to the north of Beach Farm, Benacre. It is possible that these features represent medieval to post medieval field boundaries, or that they may be post medieval drainage ditches, although they are visible within a background of geological ‘noise’ and have therefore been recorded with a hint of caution since they may also be geological in nature.
