Full Description
PRN39228
A group of irregular and sub-rectangular enclosures and ditches visible on aerial photographs. The enclosures are on the edge of the fen off Billingborough Drove, east of the Car Dyke.

The cropmarks’ morphology would suggest the cropmark enclosures date to the later prehistoric. {2}
