Monument record MWX43408 - Hay stack stances, Great Stonar

Summary

Three shallow circular earthworks, interpreted as hay stack stances of medieval or post-medieval date, are visible on 1940s aerial photographs. Examination of recent aerial photographs suggests that one has been plough-levelled whilst the other two have been destroyed by the construction of a new road.
