What is recorded here
During monitoring on the Northern Motorway in 2002 a linear field ditch was uncovered. This is located in gently sloping ground. This had steep, concave sides and a concave base (L 42.88m, Wth 1.42m, D 0.7m) and ran E-W. The ditch produced burnt and unburnt animal bone, 100 sherds of medieval and post Medieval pottery and blackberry/raspberry seeds (Chapple 2004, 122-123).
