Background

Description

The site comprises a single bank and ditch which enclose an almost square piece of ground measuring 58 by across. Historic England state that it is the remains of a Roman marching camp, although firm evidence for this is lacking and an alternative interpretation as an Iron Age or Roman-British civilian settlement has also been proposed.
