Notes about this historic site

1 Cropmarks of three sides of a rectilinear enclosure. Former field boundaries and ploughed out ridge and furrow can also be seen but the possible enclosure is on a different alignment suggesting it is an earlier feature. The northern side is c200m and it extends c170m south-east. A possible ring ditch c.15m diameter can be seen 115m north-west of the enclosure.
