What is recorded here

Situated on a gentle MW-facing slope. The vegetation mark of a large oval and grass-covered enclosure (dims c. 75m N-S; c. 55m E-W) defined by what is probably a wide fosse (Wth c. 5-15m) is visible on Google Earth (20/03/2018; 02/2019; 14/11/2019; 25/03/2020; 04/03/2022). Two wide banks (Wth c. 10m; L c. 130m) extend W from the fosse at NW and SW until they meet a N-S current field boundary, the space between them narrowing to c. 50m at W. The enclosure does not appear on other aerial images, and it was first reported by S. McGlade.
