Full Description
Probable settlement, west of Oxcroft Lane, Old Bolsover, of Roman or earlier date.
A geophysical survey carried out in 2024 recorded a number of anomolies that could indicate an area of intensive archaeological activity. The coverage and quality of this particular survey was not ideal. (1)
The adjacent fields, to the north and northwest, had been previously produced very clear geophysical survey results, demonstrating the presence of enclosures, and other probable settlement features in those areas.
