Full Description
27 July 1995. NLA air photography.
Five ring ditches with associated linears all showing as cropmarks.
Two of the ring ditches are particularly large, although incomplete as cropmarks, and may be circular enclosures.
One of the smaller ring ditches is quite faint and cannot be seen on all the the photographs.
The linear features all show clearly as cropmarks, however it is possible that the northernmost two may relate to the cuurent field layout rather than some earlier feature.
H. Clare (NLA), 23 April 2001.
28 June 1996. NLA air photography.
Ring ditches still visible.
Additional double concentric ring ditch identified at TG 2750 2014. A second additional ring ditch is also visible to the east of the group.
Inside the circular enclosure is a horse-shoe shaped enclosure, which appears to be a hut circle.
A similar sized ring sitch can be seen to the south.
S. Massey (NLA), 9 October 2001.
