1 An earthwork measuring 15m by 5m can be seen on aerial photographs, and stands to 3m in height. A small possible World War I three side brick shelter has been built into the north-east side of the earthwork. The feature is known locally as ‘the butt’. It is possible that the military structure reused an earlier earthwork.
