What is recorded here
On top of a E-W ridge, overlooking Lee valley to N. 1842, 1904 and 1938 OS 6-inch maps show curving field fence NNW->SSE and bend in laneway SSE->W, suggesting presence of roughly circular enclosure (c. 200m N-S), within which is Aglish graveyard (CO072-092003-). Field in SW quadrant named 'Friar's Field' on all three OS 6-inch maps, but no record of friary ever existing here (Gwynn and Hadcock 1988). Field fences about graveyard are now levelled but outline of enclosure still visible as cropmark from air (see photograph, Mould 1981, 108). Included by Hurley (1982, 305) in list of 'early sites'.
