OSi 25-inch map as a raised roughly circular-shaped area (diam. c. 31m) defined by a scarp from E-S-W. Truncated at N by a field boundary running NE-SW and at NE by a drain running NW-SE. Visible as a raised roughly circular shaped area on Digital Globe orthoimage taken between 2011-13 and as a faint cropmark on Google Earth orthoimages. See attached Google Earth orthoimages.
