'CULTIVATION REMAINS
(9) CULTIVATION REMAINS. The date of the enclosure of the open fields is unknown, but the positions of Monuments (5) and (8) indicate that part at least had been enclosed by the late 18th century. Traces of ridge-and-furrow arranged in butting furlongs, underlying the present field boundaries, appear on air photographs (R.A.F. CPE/UK 1974: 2159-61, 3159-61); e.g. at 812157, 820162 and 802157'.
