Abstract: |
The watching brief and excavation revealed two ditches which were probably prehistoric or Romano-British in origin and were associated with the extensive cropmark landscape known to exist on the Methley terraces. A searchlight position and two related pits (possibly a bomb shelter and a machine gun pit) were a new addition to the small corpus of type sites in the area. The searchlight position was of the single light type and in addition to the light position itself, they were typically associated with a predictor emplacement, at least one L.A.A machine gun pit and a number of huts for the detachment and generator.
