Summary

Aerial photographs of this area have recorded a number of cropmarks. These include linear soilmarks, apparently part of a large complex in the field to the north, which have been identified as a possible Roman settlement. This is overlain by many small circular cropmarks, perhaps haystack rings, which also extend to the north.
