A cropmark ditch of potential prehistoric to Roman date is visible as a cropmark ditch on aerial photographs of 1988 and 1999, to the west of Bolham Roman fort. The partial cropmark ditch is visible as an L-shaped feature which may represent the northwest corner of a possible enclosure, or ancillary ditched feature associated with the Roman fort to the immediate east. A possible linear northeast to southwest aligned cropmark ditch is visible to the immediate south, although it is unclear if the two features are associated, or represents a continuation of the linear cropmark ditched feature recorded approximately 130m to the northeast.
