Archaeology Notes

NH92SE 57 NEW

Aerial photography has revealed the cropmark of a possible ring ditch, with an internal diameter of about 10m, immediately to the NE of the Mains of Garten.

Adjacent to this, there is an arc of ditch measuring about 30m across. Other indeterminate cropmarks are visible in this field.
