Full Description

Modern linear feature discovered during a watching brief. Probable Second World War anti-tank ditch. No artefacts found which date it, but the size and the style of ditch suggest it was a Second World War anti-tank ditch. Appears to have been mechanically backfilled and compacted which suggests a relatively modern date. (1)
