Archaeology Notes

NH51NW 6 5019 1543 to 5025 1548.

'A' is oval, measuring 12.0m E-W by 10.0m N-S between the centres of an ill-defined wall. The entrance is not evident.

'B' is circular measuring 11.0m in diameter between the centres of a substantial wall spread to 3.0m. The SE quadrant has been mutilated by a late field dyke which cuts through it. The entrance is not evident.
