What is recorded here
Located in a fold towards the S end of a low N-S ridge on land that was once demesne land of Newtown House. The faint cropmark of a small rectangular feature (dims c. 6m x c. 6m) defined by a slight trench is visible only on Apple Maps, which utilises a survey conducted by Blue Sky International during June 2018. It is within a larger circular enclosure (diam. c. 10m) that has is an entrance (Wth c. 3m) at E. It was reported separately by Anthony Murphy and Matthew Mullen-Reynolds around the same time.
