Description

Survey undertaken by the National Trust in Park Wood, Bradenham, in 2006 recorded a number of banks to the east of the surveyed area. These lie between lynchets and appear to subdivide the area between the lynchets. They extend down the major slope and suggest it was divided into managed fields (B8). NGR to centre of distribution.
