Description

NRHE data transfer: September 1999. Field survey. A low earth mound located next to a creek edge, roughly circular in shape, 14.0m by 15.0m by 0.75m high. Some sherds of post-medieval pottery were located in exposed soil areas. The proximity of the mound to a wind pump together with the post-medieval pottery suggest that this feature may be the site of a structure associated with the wind pump (EHER 18115). The mound is visible as an earthwork and was recorded by English Heritage in September 1999 during analytical survey. See archive plan at 1:1000 scale and the Old hall Marshes survey report. <1> <2> <3>
