Full description

Post medieval earthwork ridge and furrow, Coningsby, as depicted on the Witham Valley NMP.{1}
No evidence of earthworks was seen during a walkover survey at TF 2265 5779, and it appears that these have been ploughed out. A few fragments of late medieval to early post medieval pottery were found at the field edges, where they would have been re-deposited after being disturbed by ploughing. {2}
The three blocks of earthworks located on land west of Ivy House and east of Coningsby Airfield appear to have been ploughed out. The blocks are centred at TF 2365 5612, TF 2365 5576 and TF2348 5597. {3}
