Monument record MYO3524 - Field System Naburn

Summary

Iron Age or Roman rectilinear ditched enclosures, which are probably part of a field system, are visible as cropmarks on air photographs. One enclosure contains a roundhouse and two other incomplete curvilinear enclosures are possibly also round houses. There is a field system to the south (recorded in SE 64 NW 29) and a extensive one to the east (recorded in SE 64 NW 32), but it is uncertain if they are all part of the same system.
