Summary

Part of a small, circular enclosure, of unknown date, is visible as a low, poorly-defined earthwork on imagery from a lidar survey flown in 2015. It is not clear enough to be certain, but it is possible that the enclosure defines or surrounds a low mound, and it could potentially be the site of a Bronze Age round barrow.

Part of a small, circular enclosure, of unknown date, is visible as a low, poorly-defined earthwork on imagery from a lidar survey flown in 2015 (S1). It is not clear enough to be certain, but it is possible that the enclosure defines or surrounds a low mound (not mapped), and it could potentially be the site of a Bronze Age round barrow. It is also possible, however, that the feature has been at least partially created by modern vehicle movement in this area.
