Full Description
Three light coloured cropmarks (representing banks?) are visible on air photographs in an area of pasture. <1>
'C': SY 80589886. Circular, and about 27 metres in diameter; much of the south-east quadrant is obscured by ground disturbance at a field gateway. Possibly the result of agricultural activity although it is difficult to account for the marks in this context. Nothing is visible on the RAF Aps. (See 1:2500 sketch plan). <2>
Close inspection not possible because of crops, but nothing visible from a distance. <3>
