Full description

Transcriptions of curvilinear ditches from cropmark evidence visible on unknown aerial photographs correspond to a database record of cropmark field boundaries of ‘unknown medieval’ date to the north-west Higher Tor farm. A further cropmark to the south-west of Lower Tor farm was probably recorded under the same database record.
