A roughly circular cropmark enclosure (diam. c. 40m) was brought to the attention of the Survey by Jean-Charles Caillère who identified it on Google Earth satellite imagery dated March 2018. A now-levelled NE-SW running field boundary, which is shown on the OS 6-inch mapping, cut across its SE limits.
