What is recorded here

Located at the crest of a NE-facing slope. The cropmark of a subcircular enclosure (dims c. 50m E-W; c. 42m N-S) defined by a fosse feature SW-N-E is visible only on Google Earth (14/07/2018). The perimeter is truncated slightly by a NE-SW field boundary at SE and also be a NW-SE field bank at SW, but a section of the fosse (L c. 15m) can be seen at S between the two field banks.
