Iron Age Round Huts (?) and Enclosures off Courteenhall Road

A combination of HER data regarding ditch and enclosures with a portion of the
USAAF vertical aerial photo taken in
April 1944. The evidence for the hut circles is indeed quite tenuous and
magnetometry survey work would be needed
to confirm the observations. In medieval times this whole area was part of
a feudal East Field that joined to a
forested
area which was shared with Roade parish, this confirmed by traces of "ridge
& furrow" marking around the farm.
The
hut circles are not yet confirmed by an archaeologist and incorporated into the
HER database.
