Situated on a fairly level landscape. The cropmark of a curved subrectangular area (dims c. 90m N-S; c. 75m E-W) defined by a single fosse feature (Wth c. 2-3m) is visible only on Google Earth (14/07/2019). There is an entrance gap (Wth c. 5m) at ESE and the perimeter is not apparent SE-SW. It was first reported by Jean Charles Caillere.
