Summary
A dark irregularly shaped cropmark is visible on aerial photographs taken between 1946 and 1954. The cropmark is probably forming over a large cut feature such as a quarry. No quarry or other earthwork feature is depicted here on the 1880s-1890s Ordnance Survey mapping, and this feature may therefore predate the late nineteenth century.
