1976.
Cropmarks of unusual ditches, apparently boundaries of some sort of enclosures, one large with a gateway or crossing; all crossed by mark presumably of trackway (site NHER 1973), though on slightly different alignment than marked.
Located by E. Rose (NAU), 16 January 1978.

19 July 1994. NLA air photography.
Photographs indicate a broad curvilinear interrupted ditch co-joined to the north side of which are a series of small rectilinear enclosures. Also to the north of these features is a rectangular enclosure, which appears to have traces of a double ditch. The interrupted ditch is cut by a trackway, maybe relating to NHER 1973. To the south of the main group of enclosures is a ring ditch which has one straight stretch of ditch.
S. Massey (NLA), 30 April 2001.
