Captain's House (7). There were no obvious surviving structural remains within the field at this location and only limited signs of terracing or a building platform. That said, there were some low, ill-defined earthworks within the general area, as well as some differential plant growth in the grass which was interspersed with patches of nettles. This normally indicates a different matrix in the underlying soil/sub soil. The landowner also recalls large stones that were once present in the area, although these have since gone.
There were no obvious surface remains and the degree of preservation for any buried remains is uncertain, although basal layers and/or footing structures surviving below the ground surface, are considered likely. If present, it is likely that buried deposits will be in a stable condition, given that the field is maintained as pasture and not currently ploughed.
