Map

1946. Cropmark on Royal Air Force aerial photograph.
Drawn by R.R.Clarke (NCM) on NCM map as subrectangular feature with dotted line running north-west to south-east.
From NAU aerial photographs 1980, it would appear the dotted line is meant to represent the present field boundary not on Ordnance Survey. On this photo the feature is more like a double rectangle, one inside the other, but is not at all clear.
E. Rose (NAU) 21 June 1982.

On the RAF air photograph the feature appears as a subdivided rectangle, but very faint.
E. Rose (NAU) 15 October 1996.
