Cursus (possible).
(Undated) information in NMRS.
(Scheduled as Wester Kinnear). This monument comprises several ring-ditches and a cursus of prehistoric date, visible as cropmarks on oblique aerial photographs. It lies in arable farmland at around 40m OD and comprises a ring-ditch with an internal diameter of about 8m, within a ditch about 1m wide. There appears to be an entrance on the NNE. There are several similar ring-ditches to the N and W.
A few metres to the SW lies an elongated ditched enclosure, some 100m in length ENE-WSW by about 8m, which represents the remains of a closed cursus.
