Full Description
An area of earthworks including ridge and furrow, bank(s) and a possible hollow way were identified during a site visit in December 1995, although the latter is very 'deep' and may relate to other activity. The hollow way possibly cuts some of the ridge and furrow. To the north and west (c. SK 4575 7985) mine waste is evident and the ground is hummocky. Fields to the south (SK456795) may contain further earthworks. (1)
