Cropmarks falls on level ground with a natural surface undulation (through which now runs the railway) to the E; now under short stubble; there are no surface traces of the enclosure and perambulation revealed only modern field debris (inc Victorian glazed ware). The topographical situation and plan of the enclosure suggests Ro influence. (3)
