Monument record TR 26 NE 1282 - Middle-Late Bronze Age field systems and trackways - Thanet Earth
Summary
A near site-wide arrangement of ditches, although relatively fragmentary, form a roughly coaxial but loose arrangement of fields and double-ditched trackways, aligned predominantly north-west/south east over the southern two-thirds of the site, turning to a more north-south alignment in Plateau 1. The dating evidence suggests a mid Bronze Age provenance at the latest. (location accurate to the nearest 1m based on available information)
