Enclosure

Enclosure, large enclosure

What is recorded here

In tillage. A slightly irregular large circular enclosure (diam. c. 80m) identified as a cropmark on Google Earth Pro imagery (imagery date 14 July 2018) by Jean-Charles Caillère and Simon Dowling. A field boundary runs roughly E-W along and into the interior of the S quadrant of the enclosure in a zig-zag fashion. The S edge of the enclosure is not visible as it is in an adjoining field with a different crop. An outer fosse, at a distance of c. 4m from the inner fosse, runs concentrically in the NW quadrant, widening in the N to a distance of c. 10m and continues to run towards the SE for a further c. 60m. It may turn towards the SW to form an annexe adjoining the E quadrant of the enclosure, but this is unclear from the cropmark.
