NM22SE 28 2873 2497
(NM 2873 2497) A linear cropmark with a square northern terminal enclosure is visible on air photographs. (This may have some connection with the "Old Terraced Road and Raised Beach" noted by Crawford). Information from the 15th Annual Report of the Ancient Monuments Board for England, Scotland and Wales, 1968, 12, plan.
Nothing is visible on the ground.
Visited by OS (RD) 9 June 1972
In August 1993 a section was taken across the southern end of the cropmark (see NM22SE 52). This indicated its origin in a system of ditches associated with former stripfield cultivation.
