Full Description
An irregular, sub-square enclosure is visible as cropmarks on air photographs taken July 25th 2001. Measuring a maximum of circa 35 metres by 35 metres overall, the western side is noticeably irregular, while the north-eastern corner is incomplete, though it is not clear if this is a genuine gap. At the southwestern corner, the southern side does not meet the western side, but instead turns a little to the southwest and can be traced for a further 30 metres. There are some possible internal features visible, as well as a short length of linear ditch to the east. <1>
