Field Visit (26 March 1997)
NN81NE 38 8949 1792
Cropmarks on oblique aerial photographs (CUCAP 1979, RCAHMSAP 1983, 1986 and 1992) reveal the presence of a field-system on the relatively flat ground to the WSW of the Roman fort (NN81NE 2). The field-system comprises a series of ditch defined rectangular plots, that range from 25m by 15m to 35m by 20m. The plots are disposed on either side of an old stream course, lying predominately to the N, and their major axis is from ESE to WNW. A scatter of pits along the N side of the field-system may be tree-throws.
