NT 569 336 In 1993 K Clark from the Newstead Research Project surveyed Red Rig. Geophysical survey was undertaken on three of the four fields under which Red Rig enclosure currently lies. Resistivity survey was completed on the two southern fields, and magnetometry was completed on all but the northwestern fields. Both surveys provide evidence for a double ditched sub-circular enclosure.
