A cropmark of a ring ditch of probable Bronze Age date is visible on aerial photographs (S1-S2) This cropmark is centred on TG 4053 0375 and was previously recorded as part of NHER 11668. The ring ditch is circular in plan with a narrow ditch and an external diameter of 19m. It is likely that it is of Bronze Age date and it may relate to a round barrow. Another ring ditch cropmark is located 160m to the south (NHER 11688).
