Aerial photography (RCAHMSAP 1995) has revealed a series of cropmarks in a field immediately to the W of Kilncroft farmsteading. An arc of large pits (NX 95260 79650) lies 10m E of three parallel linear cropmarks of varying width, running NNE-SSW for about 35m. The most westerly of these may form part of an enclosure, and two sides of a second possible enclosure are visible at NX c.9508 7965. A pair of closely spaced parallel linear cropmarks run across the NW corner of the field, and various indeterminate cropmarkings and pits are scattered across the field.
