Full Description
{1} Possible rectangular enclosure; NCC Aerial Photo:SP9077/5-8.
{2} Trial trench excavation was undertaken. The same large enclosure ditch was identified in two adjacent trenches; they seem to form part of a sub-square enclosure plotted on the geophysics. The only finds from either were four sherds of middle Iron Age pottery.
