The National Monuments Service's description
A field system identified as linear cropmarks on an aerial photograph (CUCAP BGG016, 16 July 1971). Another ring-ditch (KK023-060003-) is located c. 10-15m to the SSE. Three or four parallel cropmarks, those to the S are quite faint, run roughly E-W and may be associated with two ring-ditches (KK023-060001- and KK023-060003-).
