(2003-11-07) | I asked the farmer's permission to find this! He reckoned the carving was just 'where t'ploughshare had hit it'. He also pointed out the nearby fort. It's not marked on the 1:25,000 OS map, but it's pretty impressive. A roughly circular earthwork with a definite ditch. The old Roman road runs nearby. |
