Description

Three trenches south-west of Edgcott along the line of a gas pipeline uncovered a series of ditches that did not contain any finds and could not be dated. They were suggested as disused field boundaries but historic maps and ridge and furrow plots show a landscape not much changed in layout over the post-medieval and modern period (B1-2). NGR to Trench 37.
