What is recorded here

The faint outline of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 15-20m) identified as a cropmark of a fosse on an aerial photograph (CUCAP BGG033, 16 July 1971). A ring-ditch (KK019-022001-) was identified c. 65m to the SE, another ring-ditch (KK019-022002-) c. 55m to the NE, as well as a relic field system (KK019-022004-) which appears to post-date the ring-ditches as one of the field boundaries runs roughly NW-SE across one of the ring-ditches (KK019-022001-). See attached aerial photograph CUCAP BGG033, 16 July 1971 Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 23 September 2020
