In tillage. Another enclosure (KK028-010----) is located c. 170m to the NNE. This enclosure is indicated on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map as roughly circular and on the 1948-9 revision as oval and is visible as a cropmark an aerial photograph in 2001 (ASIAP (273) 27, 2 December 2001). On Google Earth satellite imagery (imagery date 9 August 2022) the cropmark of this oval enclosure (int. dims. c. 50m NNE-SSW; c. 40m ESE-WNW) is very clear, revealing it was defined by a wide fosse (Wth 4.5-5m) with an outer narrow fosse (Wth c. 1-1.5m) and, after a gap of c. 3m, another outer fosse (Wth c. 1-1.5m). The gap between the wide internal fosse and the narrow outer fosse is c. 6m on the E side, extending from c. 9-11m from S to N. There is also the suggestion of a third outer narrow fosse in the NE sector, also at a gap of c. 3m. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly
