Full Description
On Day Common in southeast angle of two field boundaries: cropmark of subrectangular moat?
E. Rose (NAU), 24 October 1976.
June 1977. Visit.
North side of enclosure appears as raised sandy bank in field of root crop. Therefore an enclosure and not a moat? Unless this was an outer bank.
E. Rose (NAU), 2 June 1977.
