oval form of pre-Roman works. The trenches showed a 
similar fosse to that of Ambresbury. Two qualities of 
hand-made pottery (a coarser and a hner) were found. 
There were more worked flints than at Ambresbury. Some 
of the flint flakes appeared as if grouped round the debris 
of charcoal, representing the fires of the makers of the 
camp, buried within the vallum of the camp. There was 
also a chipped flint adze of triangular section, and about 
5 inches long. All the evidence was in harmony with the 
supposition of a pre-Roman date. 213 
Uphall Camp (W. Crouch, E.N., vii., 1893, pp. 131-138, map 
and 2 figs.). It is situated immediately beside the Roding. 
There is a mound 28 feet high on one of the ramparts. Much 
of it is obscure, but it seems to be of British, rather than 
Roman, form. No remains from it are known. (E.N., 
x., 1897, p. 143 ; p. 176 ; x., 1898, pp. 374 - 375 )* The site 
was being sold for building [336]. 214 
Ware (Herts) ( Proc ., iv., 1883', p. xxv.). Trenches and earth¬ 
works on Garrison Field, Widbury Hill. Worked flints in 
neighbouring fields. 215 
Harlow (E.N. { vi., 1892, p. 77 ; quotation). A supposed 
Roman camp. There are no banks, but foundations of 
buildings have been found. Coins are also found, but 
British coins seem to be more abundant than Roman. 
(T. V. Holmes, E.N., ix., 1895, pp. 59-65, map). The railway 
a little W. of Harlow station crosses part of the site, which 
is a natural hillock formerly surrounded by a loop of the 
Stort—argues against it being an occupied site. (I. Chalkley 
Gould, E.N., ix., 1895, pp. 65-70). Replies in favour of 
the contention. 216 
Wallbury (E.N.,' ii., 1888, pp. 225-227). Between Bishop 
Stortford and Sawbridgworth ; well-preserved with a double 
ditch and circumference of £ mile, enclosing some 30 acres. 
No Roman remains have been found, and it is probably 
British. 217 
Battle, or Repell, Ditches, Saffron Walden (Proc., iv., 1S84, 
p. lxxxv.). 218 
The Lynchetts ( E.N. , xvii., 1913, pp. 218-219). Terraces of 
cultivation on the slopes of a dry chalk valley near Ickleton, 
Cambridgeshire. The term “ lynchett ” properly refers 
to the strip of grass slope separating the terraces. Many 
Neolithic flakes, etc., occur on the field at the top of these 
terraces. There is a tumulus on the opposite hill. 219 
Pleshey, visit to ( E.N. , xiii., 1903, p. 32 ; map). 220 
Great Canfield (near Dunmow) and Stansted Mountfitchet 
(T. V. Holmes, E.N., x., 1897, pp 151-157). These
