Description

Cropmarks, consisting of linear features, ditched trackways and field boundaries. There is a ring ditch north-west of Brakey Grove, and a penannular ditch north of Weeleyhall Wood. A large 'parched' mark centred on a track east of Weeley Lodge may be a recent military installation, as on the Potato Marketing Board aerial photographs a structure is still visible. <1> - <13> NRHE data import: TM 16602115.
