Enclosure in Townleyhall

Enclosure

What is recorded here

Situated on a steep E-facing slope on the parkland of Townley Hall which is c. 250m to the S. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 35m E-W) defined by a single fosse is visible only on Apple Maps, which utilises a survey conducted by Bluesky International during June 2018. The enclosure is truncated at S by an E-W farm lane and is not visible in parched grass S of that feature. It could be an unmapped tree-ring, and it was first reported by Anthony Murphy.
