What is recorded here
Located on a small N-S spur. The faint cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) defined by a slight fosse E-SW that is clearly visible only on Apple Maps, which utilises a survey conducted by Blue Sky International during June 2018. The fosse is barely traceable all the way around on the same images, apart from a gap (Wth c. 5m) at SW. It was first reported by Matthew Mullen-Reynolds.
