What is recorded here
A large D-shaped enclosure (dims. c. 147m N-S; c. 150m E-W) defined by a fosse, visible as a cropmark on satellite imagery (2021 Maxar Technologies, viewed May 2021), identified and reported by Jean-Charles Caillère. There appears to be a roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 80m) in the interior, slightly E of centre, also defined by a fosse visible as a cropmark. A natural pond, indicated on the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map and 1907 revision, encroaches into the NE sector of the D-shaped enclosure.
