Vis=-/9/1997 (national trust) may be linear feature. Fainter lines and marks to w may be related. Possible that marks result from geological or other causes. No earthworks or surface features visible (national trust).

The linear is clearly visible as a dark narrow cropmark on the DAP aerial photograph taken in 1989. However it is interrupted and irregular and is considered more likely to be geological in origin. Other indistinct dark cropmarks in this field also appear to be caused by geological features.
