Full Description

To the west of an enclosure there is a slight suggestion of a double-ditched track way possibly leading to the eastern entrance of the enclosure. This interpretation should, however, be treated with caution as the anomalies respect the alignment of themodern agricultural remains and may simply be magnetically enhanced plough furrows, their location in relation to the enclosure being entirely fortuitous. To the west of the enclosure, an area of magnetic reduction flanked by two slightly erratic and discontinuous linear anomalies is reminiscent of a possible track way or holloway but the anomalies could also be a topographical or geological feature.
