Monument record MDO32824 - Probable settlement east of Muston Field Barn, Winterborne Kingston and Anderson

A possible Iron Age or Roman enclosed settlement is visible as cropmarks on aerial photography taken in 2005 and 2009. The site comprises parts of at least four smaller conjoined enclosures within a larger polygonal enclosure. Two linears to the west of the site are likely to be contemporary field boundaries. The features were digitally recorded during the Dorset Middle Stour AIM.
