A possible field system visible as a crop mark on Digital Globe orthoimage taken between 2011-13 together with other features including two circular enclosures (DU008-052001- & DU008-0520032-) (SMR file; pers. comm. T. Condit). Geophysical survey by the Discovery Programme LIARI Project, identified a complex mosaic of rectilinear, circular and petal‐shaped enclosures and other features extending over an area of more than 1ha. The layout of these features suggest they are defined by a series of adjoining and overlapping ditches and trenches associated with several phases of land division and possible settlement. The intensity of the magnetic responses exhibited by these features varies considerably, with some particularly strong anomalies likely to relate to ditches that contain significant quantities of burnt (as well as decaying organic) material (Dowling 2013, 14).
