Archaeology Notes

NH56SW 29 5224 6373

This field boundary is a massive stone wall which has created a lynchet 1.5m high. This wall is 2.0m wide and stands between 0.5 - 1.0m high. It apparently relates to the nearby pre-improvement settlement (NH56SW 20), possibly it was the infield.

Visited June 1989.

Information from S T Driscoll and S M Foster (Mss, 4, No. 2.0.) 1989.
