Description
{1} Detailed survey revealed nine ring ditches and three penannular, or possibly D-shaped, enclosures in three locations, separated by magnetically blank areas of field. Several of the enclosures have clearly defined ditch terminals suggesting entrance ways. In all three areas other archaeological type anomalies suggest the possibility of further ring ditches and enclosures but they are incomplete and therefore the interpretation cannot be as precise; although it is likely that all three areas indicate settlement or occupational activity.
