Any additional observations or comments

I was not able to access the find site at it is an arable field within the STANTA battle area. These observations are from the small area of heat /forestry immediately adjoining the field to the SW. There are areas within the STANTA zone which are forestry plantation immediately adjoining the arable field to the NW which may contain features but cannot be accessed.
