The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30-35m) defined by a single fosse feature was recorded by Joseph McMahon on a drone-mounted camera in August 2018. It is also visible as a cropmark on the OSI aerial images (1995). See the attached view from the NE, courtesy of Joseph McMahon. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 12 September 2018
