Full Description
{1} Aerial photo NCCAP:TL0276/1-2
{2} Although now damaged by ploughing this feature originally consisted of a rectangular ditched enclosure, 40m by 20m, orientated NNE-SSW. The ditch was 10m wide and up to 1.5m deep. There was no entrance. The interior was uneven, possibly as the result of quarrying, and the whole enclosure was respected by the surrounding ridge and furrow.
