NHER 38308 (Monument record) - Undated irregular curvilinear ditches

July 2003. NMP.
Within the north of the site are an east to west aligned pair of parallel running ditches (S1). The features appear as a double-ditched drove or track but, at 4.3m apart, are uncharacteristically narrow and they may simply be a double-ditched field boundary. Within the northeast of the site is an extensive ditch (S1), aligned in an approximate north to south direction. The segment of ditch is straight, has a length of 135m, and width of 8m. This may be a modern drain. To the south are a series of fragmentary and irregular ditches that are likely to be field boundaries or drains. There is a curving ditch in the southern part of the site that may be part of an enclosure, although this is not certain. The date of these features is not known. They may all be post-medieval or modern but note the presence of the probable Roman period site NHER 28000 to the immediate south-west.

April-May 2025. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of site on route of proposed West Winch Housing Access Road.
Trenches excavated adjacent to Constitution Hill coincided with a number of the cropmarks in this group. Two adjacent undated ditches were potentially associated with a north-west to south-east aligned cropmark recorded at TF 6373 1780 but there was no evidence for surviving sub-surface remains associated with the adjacent north-east to south-west aligned cropmarks. None of the excavated trenches coincided with the curvilinear cropmarks at TF 6369 1785.
See NHER 69245 for further details.
