What is recorded here

Located in a little S-facing fold with a small E-W stream c. 200m to the S. In July 2018 a drone-mounted camera operated by Páid Bates (Skypix Aerial Works) recorded an image of the cropmark of a rectangular area (int. dims c. 35m NNW-SSE; c. 30m ENE-WSW) defined by wide moats (Wth c. 3-5m) on each side but the moat on the W is narrower. There are causeways (Wth c. 2m) on the N and E sides that have probably been created by a WNW-ESE track.
