(Location amended to centred NJ 7364 1255 and NJ 7387 1268). Two small areas of rig-and-furrow are visible in this old plantation, which has largely reverted to heather moorland. The first (NJ 7364 1255) is aligned NW and SE, and comprises rigs up to 4m in breadth separated by broad furrows in which field-cleared stones have been dumped. In the second area, which lies about 150m NE of the first, the rigs measure up to 7m in breadth and are aligned NW and SE.
