Leafield Edge Deserted Village (Alnham)
-
Description
Earthworks consistent with a deserted medieval or later village site were located during field walking in 1979 at Leafield Edge on the west margin of a unified block of broad ridge ploughing extending over some 115 acres. The settlement earthworks fall into three distinct groups and consist of foundations of rectangular buildings with associated paddocks or garths. The earthworks, however, give no indication as to their age. Surveyed at 1:1250. NT 985136 (sic). Aerial reconnaissance at Leafield Edge in 1980 has shown that the deserted village survives with its fields completely intact..... -
