Archaeology Notes

NH91SW 9 9011 1173

See also NH91SW 17.

The cropmarks of a sub-circular enclosure with an internal diameter of about 45m, have been revealed by oblique aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 1995) in a field 450m NW of Dell Farm (NH91SW 36). A narrow ditch line runs along the edge of the ditch and suggest that the enclosure was palisaded. A possible unenclosed settlement is visible immediately to the W (NH91SW 17).

Information from RCAHMS (KJ) 10 June 1999.
