Summary

Cropmarks of undated linear ditches are visible on aerial photographs to the east of All Saints' Church, NHER 8653. Four sections of linear ditch are visible as cropmarks on roughly southwest to northeast and north to south alignments. None of these ditch cropmarks has an alignment that corresponds to the surviving post medieval field pattern. It is likely that these cropmarks relate to field or other boundaries of an unknown, but probably medieval or earlier, date.
