The National Monuments Service's description
Aerial photograph (GB89.Q.37, July 1989) shows cropmarks of a series of fosses forming a rectilinear field system; one field boundary fosse extends from an upstanding ringfort (KK010-052----). There are a number of other enclosures (KK010-150----; KK010-151----) and ring-ditches (KK010-152----; KK010-153----; KK010-053001-; KK010-053002-; KK010-053003- and KK010-187----) in the immediate vicinity which have also been identified as cropmarks and may be associated with the field system.
