Cropmarks of a small sub-rectangular or square enclosure, possibly with a central pit, and other cropmark enclosures - possibly ditched enclosures and field boundaries, seen on APs taken by Mike Farley in July 1999 (B1).
Report on cropmarks, including plot at 1:2500 (B2).

Cropmarks of a possible later prehistoric, Roman or early medieval rectilinear enclosure within a larger enclosure visible on aerial photographs at SP 8339 1587. Only part of the site can be seen. This may be the remains of a settlement. The extensive remains of later , possibly medieval or post medieval quarrying is visible to the west of the enclosures (3).

A trapezoidal ditched enclosure, pits and linear ditches of probable Iron Age and/or Roman date is visible on aerial photographs as cropmarks and was mapped as part of the Aylesbury Vale Aerial Investigation and Mapping project (EBC18604). Located in a field about 535 metres N of Barnett House and centred at SP 83799 17712, a trapezoidal ditch up to 2.2 metres wide encloses an internal area about 13 metres x 13 metres at its widest point. Within the enclosure is a subrectangular ditch about 6 metres x 2.5 metres. Two small circular pits lie just outside the enclosure ditch. To the E is a linear ditch aligned N-S that connects at the S end with a ditch aligned W-E. To the S of this are several linear ditch sections in different orientations and a 1.5 metres wide curving ditch that extends from ESE-W for 92 metres. To the W of these features is a large area of probably post medieval extraction, about 40 metres WSW-ENE and 160 metres NNW-SSE (5-6).
