Full Description
From the report: "A number of ditches were identified in the area to the east of the school. These are most likely to be field boundary ditches. No artefacts were recovered from these features so it is not possible to date them, and the charcoal assemblages are too limited to provide material suitable for dating.
One of the ditches [007] / [019] was observed to extend between trenches 8 and 9 over a distance of 30.47 metres but could not be traced on the same northeast to southwest alignment into trench 10.
The remaining two ditches in trenches 9 and 10 ([021; 023]) shared identical northwest to southeast alignments and were 20.15 metres apart.
It was not possible to show any significant relationship between these two alignments or to relate the ditches to historical mapping or existing land units, however they do roughly respect the present course of The Great Stour in that they are either roughly parallel or perpendicular to it."
