Summary

A series of linear cropmarks of ditches are visible on 1976 NLA aerial photographs. The origin of these features is uncertain. They may be connected to the cropmark features of the neighbouring site, NHER 13100, which have been suggested as old field boundaries, but there is also a possibility that they may actually be due to drainage.

A series of linear cropmarks of ditches are visible on 1976 NLA aerial photographs (S1). The origin of these features is uncertain. It is possible that they are related to the cropmark features of the neighbouring site, NHER 13100, which have been suggested as old field boundaries, but there is also a possibility that they may actually be due to drainage (much of this area is drained due to the proximity to the river Stiffkey). These features are located at NGR TF9390 4092.
