What is recorded here
This well-defined ring-ditch was identified by geophysical survey in 2004 approximately 100m SSE of the conjoined ringfort (WM024-066----) and c.50m E of the ancient roadway (WM024-067----) (Schot 2005; 2011). Located on a gentle south-facing slope, it registers geophysically as a positive magnetic ring, 7m in diameter, with a pit-type feature c.1.5m in diameter at its centre. Faint traces of a second possible ring-ditch, of similar size, were recorded by the survey just over 2m to the SE, while a possible ring-barrow (WM024-202----) lies c.65m to the SE.
