The cropmark of a subcircular enclosure (dims c. 37m E-W; c. 32m N-S) defined by a single fosse is most clearly visible on Google Earth (21/04/2019; 21/07/2021) but is also visible on OSI images (1995). It was first reported by Jean Charles Caillére. See the attached enhanced view from Google Earth (21/07/2021) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 4 January 2022
