Full Description

A distinct ring ditch in association with fairly regular enclosure ditches. There may just possibly be a ring ditch in a neighbouring field to the east, but the slide is unclear. (1)
Geophysical survey. Site B - several strong linear anomalies across the N end of the field, mostly oreintated E-W and N-S. They perhaps represent a continuation of the remains found in Site A (L8533). Immediately to the south is a circular anomaly c 18m in diameter, apparently representing a ring ditch. Running across the whole of area B, ridge and furrow crossing all of the enclosures and ring ditch. (5)
See L8533 for cropmarks in next field to W (site A), L11971 to S (site C), L4351 for cropmarks to W. See L11968 for Ro pottery.
