What is recorded here

Located in flat terrain within a ploughed landscape, N of a cluster of farm buildings and houses and just W of a farm trackway. The cropmark of a sub-rectangular ring-ditch (ext. diam. c. 40m ) with a broad ditch at the SE side, narrowing in width as it progresses to the NW side. The ring-ditch appears to overlie a smaller circular ring-ditch (int. diam. c. 12m) which it cuts along its NW edge. Within the larger enclosure are a number of circular anomalies, one at the centre, another in the NE quadrant. The monument is only visible on the 1995 OSi black and white aerial photographs.
