Full description

Earthwork and cropmark ditches and bank are visible on aerial photographs and have been interpreted as a field system of unknown, but potential medieval, date. Three groups of field boundaries have been transcribed. The south-eastern of the three corresponds to a database record of a medieval field system, and the two other transcriptions are also likely to be part of this record.

Only part of the photo reference is given in the transcription attributes, so the date of the photographs is not known.
