Monument record MWX43302 - Hay stack stances and ridge and furrow, south of the Stour, Ash

Summary

Two areas of ridge and furrow and six small circular features are visible as cropmarks on 1940s RAF vertical aerial photographs. The circular features range in size from c.6-8m in diameter and are interpreted as hay stack stances. There is no clear relationship between these features and the ridge and furrow. The ridge and furrow is fairly broadly spaced so may be medieval or earlier post-medieval in date.
