Description
Geophysical surveys undertaken by Pre-Construct Geophysics between January and May 2009 identified a group of anomalies interpreted as possible ditched rectangular enclosures aligned NW-SE, possibly with internal subdivisions and associated pit-like features, towards the N corner of Field 4. See report for detail (B1).
Two linear features and a pit identified during geophysics and subsequent evaluation, containing occasional fragments of Roman pottery. Thought to form part of a complex of rectangular enclosures. See report for detail (B2).
