What is recorded here
An oblique aerial photograph, taken by Leo Swan in the 1980s, shows cropmark evidence for a sub-circular enclosure with an internal division (dims. N-S c. 44m; c. 35m E-W). Linear features radiating from the N and S quadrants of the enclosure are probably the remains of an associated field system. The site is in a field of tillage on a NNE facing slope. Not visible at ground level.
