What is recorded here
Located on a fairly level, low-lying landscape. The cropmark of a large pit or quarry (diam. c. 20m) is visible on digital aerial photographs (WX048-148_1, _2) taken in July, 2006. The pit pre-dates the NNE-SSW field bank and drain that are marked on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6-inch map but which are now removed. It is also visible on the OSi series of aerial photographs (1995). Rath (WX048-148----) is c. 80m to the ESE.
