Full Description
Complex of linear features, comprising, to the north of the drive, a partly double ditched bank, around 13m total width and around 1.5m total height, roughly parallel to existing fence. It becomes more subdued to north, gently merging with a low causeway. A heavy goods drive, now around 4m wide, 0.4m high causeway extends from a gateway to east and joins and is superimposed on this feature as it then joins the present drive. To the south of the drive three separate sections of linear depressions, up to 9m wide in part probably continuing the line of the other features to north, but of different form. Some adjoining ditches may have formed part of an enclosure group, and in arable land to north-west of the drive cropmark evidence is of some enclosures. A probable mix of (deer) park boundaries and roadways (Fadens Map alignments) with possible associations with site NHER 13746.
B. Cushion (NLA), March 1993.
