Full Description

An incomplete, asymmetric, curvilinear enclosure, 180m by 100m, defined in places by 2 parallel ditches. Three small, circular enclosures, some incomplete, and with an average diameter of 8m were recorded within the enclosure, and may be hut circles. A discontinuous, sinuous linear feature, 250m in length and defined by 2 parallel ditches, may be a trackway; it approaches the enclosure from the NE but any relationship is unclear. Adjacent to the tackway, an enclosure with 2 bowed sides, 22m by 12m. To the W, a potential incomplete enclosure, defined by the arc of a single ditch. Morph LI668.4.1-5, 668.5.1, 668.6.1. (1)
