What is recorded here

Located on a rise in a gently undulating landscape that might once have been part of the demesne of Corballis House. The cropmark of a subrectangular enclosure (dims c. 32m E-W; 25m plus N-S) with slightly rounded corners defined by single fosses (max. Wth c. 2m) is visible on Apple Maps which utilises a survey conducted by Bluesky International during June 2018. The ring-ditch (ME028-087002-) is at the centre. The ring-ditch (ME028-087003-) is c. 35m to the NW and ring-ditch (ME028-076001-) is c. 140m to the E. It was first reported by Anthony Murphy, and the enclosure is also visible on the OSI images (1995).
