What is recorded here

Aerial photographs (GB89. AF.05 & GB89. AE.07) show cropmark of a circular enclosure defined by a fosse and with a small contiguous cellular enclosure on its southern edge. This inner enclosure is surrounded by a widely spaced outer concentric fosse; a curved fosse extends from the outer enclosure suggesting the existence of a contiguous enclosure to the south-east. The site was subject to geophysical survey (Licence no. 11R0152) which detected linear features that mirrored the location of the monument but subsequent test excavation (Licence no. 12E0063) failed to identify the features conclusively (Kavanagh 2012, 24).
