Geophysical survey NC 248 219 to NC 249 220 Earth resistance and gradiometer survey in October 2005 located the remains of a bank and ditch, 3.5-5m wide. A high resistance anomaly located at the SE end of the central area is interpreted as a possible compacted surface, with the gradiometer data showing possible occupation debris scattered to the N and E. The breaks in the banks to the N and SE are thought to belong to a water management system, with that on the NE linking to a causeway leading from the enclosure towards the old church. The enclosure is surrounded by a system of palaeochannels.
