There is a fosse running concentrically with the N-NE sector c. 25-30m from the enclosure, this may be an other enclosure or could be part of an associated field system. The cropmark of a field system (KK019-142----) is also visible forming a large roughly rectangular enclosure which runs northeastward from the inner enclosure.
