Cropmarks of undated linear features and post-medieval field boundaries, west of River Stour (EHER 83177)

Cropmarks of undated linear features and post-medieval field boundaries are recorded on the NMP cropmark plot from Google Earth aerial imagery.

A series of linear features are recorded on the NMP cropmark plot. At least two of these linears, running parallel for approximately 150m, roughly 200m apart and aligned WSW-ENE , are post-medieval field boundaries shown on the 1st edition OS map. <1> <2> The southernmost field boundary is intersected at its east end by an undated linear feature aligned broadly SW-NE but with several changes to it's alignment. This was identified using Google Earth imagery from 2018. This feature is probably associated with some of the linear features in the northermost part of the area recorded by EHER 9306. <1> <3> In the modern field to the east of these features, a large curvilinear feature, possibly a drainage channel is recorded as a cropmark. It is broadly aligned NW-SE. At its north end is a fourth feature, possibly a continuation of the northernmost field boundary described above, is also recorded on the cropmark plot. <1>
