What is recorded here

Situated on a N-facing slope. The cropmark of an oval enclosure (int. dims c. 68m E-W; c. 46m N-S) defined by two closely-spaced and regular fosses or ditches (max. ext. dims c. 80m E-W; c. 60m N-S) is visible only on a Digital Globe (2011-13) image. The ditches are slightly cut by a NE-SW field bank at NW and the ditches are so regularly parallel that it may represent an unmapped copse defined by a field bank with internal and external drains. It was first reported by Jean Charles Caillére. See the attached enhanced view from Digital Globe (2011-13) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 21 January 2022
