MMO1028 - Possible post-medieval ironstone pits north of Broad Lane, Exton (Monument)

A linear series of approximately twenty, small (4 metre to 10 metre) circular depressions, are clearly visible as earthworks on vertical aerial photograph, to the north of Broad Lane, Exton. These features, which are very uniform in shape and size, may be post medieval (or earlier) ironstone pits.
