Type and Period
Description
An area of possible extant stetch. The area was visible on summer 2008 aerial photographs but would benefit from photography taken with shadows to confirm that the linear features are indeed extant. <1>
The features were not mapped for the 2010 NMP update. The very regular linear features maybe archaeological in origin but would greatly benefit from either further photography or a site visit.
