Monument record MWX43103 - Cropmarks of a post-Roman road northwest of Upstreet

Summary

Cropmarks of a hollowway and a trackway are visible in the field lying immediately northwest of Upstreet on 1980s aerial photographs. The features are interpreted as post-Roman in date as the hollowway partially overlies cropmarks of the southern side of a Roman Road. The hollowway may represent an earlier alignment of the present road thorough Upstreet.
