Full Description
The thin trace of a large oval enclosure is visible on a vertical aerial photograph. There is a possible internal feature showing as a dark 'blob'. To the southeast are three further dark solid crop marks. One is roughly circular and the others are roughly rectangular. Part of the large enclosure is overlain by the crop marks of rig and furrow which covers most of the northern part of the same field.
