Archaeology Notes

NT47NW 34 NT 43016 75604

What may be an unenclosed settlement has been recorded in cropmark form on near-level ground during aerial survey. The possible settlement comprises a ring-ditch, measuring about 8m in diameter and the indefinite cropmarks of at least five sub-circular macular features. There is no evidence for an enclosing ditch
