What is recorded here
Located close to the southern boundary of a large arable field, c. 310m NNW of an enclosure (DU005-069----) and c. 1.05 km SW of the Irish Sea coastline at Holmpatrick, cropmarks indicate the presence of the subsurface remains of a ring-ditch, one of two ring-ditches in the same field. The other ring-ditch (DU005-191----) is located c. 140m to the WSW. The ring-ditch, visible on Apple Maps imagery (June 2018), comprises a circular feature (ext. diam. c. 12m) defined by a ditch (Wth c. 1m). There is no evidence for an entrance through the ditch.
