Archaeology Notes

NH85SE 90 NEW

Aerial photography has revealed cropmarks of a possible unenclosed settlement about 150m to the NW of Broadly farmsteading. Settlement traces include two timber houses, each consisting of a ring-ditch enclosing a pit circle, a number of circular and crescent marks up to 30m in diameter, and an arc of ditch.
