FIELD VISIT |
Possible remains of rig and furrow cultivation in a field of semi-improved pasture that is reverting to rough ground, with a small stand of birch trees in its northern part. The rigs and furrows, slightly curving, are aligned in two directions: the first in a NW-SE alignment; the second in a SW-NE alignment. The rigs are up to 0.3m high and those aligned NE-SW are evenly spaced at about 3m apart. The rigs aligned NW-SE are not in as good condition and appear to have been truncated by subsequent vehicle/machine disturbance. The fields to the north and west are of improved pasture and no rig and furrow can be seen in them. [...] |
