In 1997 and 1998, archaeological monitoring (Purcell 1998: Excavation Licence No. 97E0449) of soil-stripping in advance of the development of a large scale sand-and-gravel extraction pit identified part of a large curvilinear feature. A section was excavated and revealed a V-shaped ditch (Wth 2m; D 0.5m) which was traced for 23m in length. Both ends continued under the surrounding, undisturbed topsoil, suggesting that it is part of a larger circular enclosure. It is likely that the remainder of the feature survives under the surrounding ploughsoil. The topsoil was backfilled after the section had been dug, and no development works were undertaken in this area.
