The National Monuments Service's description
In tillage. Visible on a 1971 aerial photograph (CUCAP BGH 56) as the cropmark of a fosse enclosing a roughly oval area (est. max. c. 65m NW-SE; c. 40m NE-SW). Also visible on a later (1989) aerial photo (GB89.AI.21) which shows the cropmark of the enclosure defined by a fosse, together with a possible smaller enclosure adjacent at NE.
