More information : The fragmentary remains of Medieval settlement and an extensive
field system were seen as earthworks, around the present village of
Hainton, and mapped from good quality air photographs. Fragments
of crofts are visible to the west and east of School Lane, centred
at TF 1800 8470 and TF 1819 8465. A field system, consisting of
ridge and furrow surrounds the village. There are blocks of ridge
and furrow west as far as TF 1700 8430, south as far as TF 1800
8370, and north as far as TF 1840 8490. A hollow way, 600m long,
approaches the settlement from the west and is centred at
TF 1738 8453. Part of one of the blocks of ridge and furrow has
been destroyed by probably modern quarrying or digging centred at
TF 1837 8461. (Morph No. LI.162.2.1-8, 4.1-6.1, 7.1-3, 8.1-10.1)
