Full description

Ditches, banks and rectilinear hollows to the southeast and southwest of Hazard Farm, including a potential former hollow way might suggest the presence of deserted settlement remains of medieval date. Evidence from evaluation immediately west of these earthworks identified an enclosure of Late Iron Age date but other features of post-Roman date. Potential for early medieval settlement origins here.
