Ridge and furrow seen as cropmarks and mapped at 1:2,500 scale from aerial photographs as part of the English Heritage: Richborough Environs Project. These features are not described in the project report [1] and no separate NMR entry appears to have been created for them. As this is the case, no further detail on source photographs or form of ridge and furrow can be added to this record at this point (24/06/2010).

The transcriptions produced by the Richborough Environs Project were added to those produced by the South East Rapid Coastal Zone Assessment (2009-10), see Associated Events. The resulting transcriptions exist as a GIS layer held by this HER [2].
