What is recorded here

Located in a large arable field, c.6.4m NW of DU014-100-, cropmarks indicate the presence of the sub-surface remains of a ring-ditch. The ring-ditch, visible on Google imagery (April 2020), comprises a circular feature (ext. diam. c.17m) defined by a ditch (wth. c.1.5m). There are no indications of any gap across the ditch. Other ring-ditches in the field may indicate the presence of an extensive prehistoric landscape. Compiled by: Christine Baker Date of upload: 8 November 2021
