The National Monuments Service's description
An aerial photograph (GB89.AA.13) shows the cropmarks of fosses forming a field system attached to a rectilinear enclosure, probably a medieval moated site (TS075-080----). The field system includes a semi-circular enclosure (immediately S of the moated site) set within the NE portion of a large, but incomplete, curvilinear enclosure extending southwards. This system has been removed in the course of quarrying.
