Summary

Two undated ditches are seen as earthworks on aerial photographs. The ditches were visible as earthworks in the 1940s and levelled by the 1950s. The ditches may have been related to military training or a slit trench possibly associated with High Ash Second World War military camp to the east (NHER 34704). It is also possible that this feature may relate to drainage or agriculture.
