The National Monuments Service's description
In tillage. An aerial photograph (GB99.GG.03, 12 July 1999) shows a cropmark of a rectilinear enclosure (KK019-127----) defined by a fosse; the fosse is indented on the western side. Two linear fosses extend from the enclosure are indicative of an associated field system (KK019-128----). A dark green cropmark within the enclosure in the SW sector suggests an internal structure, possibly a souterrain.
