The National Monuments Service's description
In tillage. An aerial photograph (GB99.GG.03, 12 July 1999) shows a cropmark of two linear fosses extending northwestward for at least c. 55m from the NW side of a rectilinear enclosure (KK019-127----) and the suggestion of two other fosses extending southeastward for at least c. 40m from the SE side, indicative of an associated field system. A dark green cropmark within the enclosure suggests internal structures, possibly a souterrain (KK019-129----).
