Summary

A possible ring ditch or circular enclosure is visible as a cropmark on aerial photographs. Its size (approximately 30m in diameter) suggests it could mark the site of a Bronze Age round barrow, although other interpretations are also feasible. The cropmark is rather faint and poorly defined, so its archaeological significance is uncertain. It is located on the western edge of a more extensive group of enclosures and field boundaries (NHER 64926).
