Full Description
July 2006. Walkover Survey.
Woodland Archaeological Earthwork Rapid Identification Survey. Barton Leys, Site 8:
A 0.7 hectare area of probably eleven parallel ridge and depressions aligned east to west and in an area of some underfoot dampness. Ridges no more than 0.2m higher than the base of the depressions.
Their overall function and age is unclear, but drainage seems most likely.
