Full Description
Bank and ditched linear features are visible as earthworks and cropmarks on aerial photographs to the north of Abbott's Wootton Plantation (1-2). They are considered likely to be field boundaries or drainage features of medieval or later date. The features were digitally plotted during the Marshwood Vale NMP; the site has been plough-levelled and is no longer visible on recent Google Earth imagery (3).
