Monument record ADT 100 - Soilmarks of banks of unknown date and significance

Please read our .

Summary

The faint soilmarks of a series of former banks, some of which may have formed an enclosure are visible on aerial photographs. The date and significance of these is uncertain and it worth noting that a similar feature in adjoining field would appear to relate to a removed field boundary. However the soilmarks does share alignment with some components of ADT 099, see record for details and may represent relict parts of this system.
