What is recorded here

Situated on a gentle E-facing slope. The cropmarks of single field drains covering about 5 hectares (c. 13 acres) are visible on Apple Maps, which utilises a survey by Blue Sky during 2018. The fields are irregularly rectangular (dims c. 40m x c. 10-30m) in shape and focus on a subrectangular enclosure (LH021-085001-). The features were reported separately by Matthew Mullen-Reynolds and Anthony Murphy at about the same time. A second rectangular enclosure (LH021-085003-) came to light in a Digital Globe image (2011-13).
