Full Description
It has been noted that in the field south of Moulton Chapel Road and East Moulton Mere Drain there is a north east to south west drove way parallel to Moulton Mere Drain. It continues south to the next field and there is a series of sub-rectangular and sub-circular cropmarks laid out on a general north west to south east alignment. This alignment is different from the Roman cropmarks and so they may not be contemporary. These may be medieval field boundaries. {1}
