Possibly medieval cropmark complex, east of Great Totham Hall (EHER 8203)

Cropmarks of rectilinear enclosures, trackways, linear features and a ring ditch within a square enclosure. The proximity of the cropmark complex to the site of a possible deserted medieval settlement (EHER 8201) could imply the cropmarks are medieval. The complex may be multi-period.

Cropmarks of rectilinear enclosure, trackways, linear features. <1> Aerial photographs show cropmarks east of the church/hall complex. They include a large, rectilinear enclosure overlying/underlying linear features and trackways. Some of the linear features may indicate a field system. East of this enclosure is part of another rectilinear enclosure with a penannular ring ditch within (with an even smaller curvilinear feature within that). There are traces of other ring ditches outside the enclosure. <2> - <7> Possible deserted medieval settlement to the immediate west (EHER 8201), some of cropmarks are medieval? See aerial photographs <8> - <11>. Cropmarks of an enclosure with an internal ring-ditch and an additional external ring-ditch (newly recorded) were recorded in 2023. <12> NRHE data transfer: A cropmark of a ring ditch and a square enclosure were photographed in 1977 by Ida McMaster. <13> Note: This is probably the enclosure and ring ditch to the east of the complex, as described above using aerial photographs <2> - <7>.
