What is recorded here
Located at the crest of a SW-facing slope down to a small meandering NNW-SSE stream that is c. 40m distant. The cropmark of a small subrectangular enclosure (dims. c. 25m NE-SW; c. 25m NW-SE) defined by single fosses or ditches is visible only on Google Earth (21/07/2021). The fosses are most clearly visible on SW and NW sides and there is a small entrance gap in the SW side. It was first reported by Jean Charles Caillére.
