Description

{1} In 2011-2 a detailed magnetometry survey identified a possible sub-circular enclosure and a partial ring ditch. Although interpreted as possible prehistoric activity, the survey noted that the results may rather be indicative of geological variations in the natural. The field was also characterised by disturbance created by the widespread distribution of (probable modern) ferrous objects in the ploughsoil horizon.
