What is recorded here

Located at the tip of a small, low W-E spur. It overlooks a curve to the E of a small N-S stream that is c. 170-200m distant. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) defined by a single fosse is visible only on Google Earth (21/07/2021). This is within an outer oval enclosure (dims c. 60m NE-SW; c. 50m NW-SE) defined by single fosse, but the perimeters of both appear to coincide NW-N. See the attached enhanced view from Google Earth (21/07/2021) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 31 August, 2021
