What is recorded here
Located on a very gentle E-facing slope. The cropmark of a large enclosure (diam. c. 90m E-W) defined by a wide fosse feature (Wth c.3m) was recorded by a drone-mounted camera in July 2018. The ditch describes a curve S-W and is visible as a low bank feature in the pasture field to the E on other aerial images (digitalmap).
