Aerial photograph taken by Leo Swan shows various cropmarks (LS_AS_35CT_00042_16m)scattered throughout the field which was an old forest annotated as 'Crooked Wood' on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map. Visible on the aerial photograph is the cropmark of a linear earthwork in NE corner of field which could be the remains of an old roadway. To the S of the linear earthwork in E corner of the field is the cropmark of a large rectangular earthwork. To the W of this rectangular cropmark located in the bottom centre of the photo in the S quadrant of the field is the cropmark of a circular shaped enclosure with D-shaped annexe on S side. This could be the cropmark of a levelled ringfort with annexe. To the W of this cropmark there is the curving line of a ditch running N towards NW corner of field where there appears to be the cropmark of a large circular-shaped enclosure (Manning 1985, 23).
