Aerial Photographic Interpretation (8 December 1992)
NO13NE 53 1862 3899.
Aerial photography has recorded the cropmarks of a ring-ditch with a central pit immediately S of the probable square barrow NO13NE 10. It measures 10m in diameter within its ditch and probably marks the site of a barrow. Traces of a second ring-ditch are visible adjacent to a pit-alignment (NO13NE 70) some 90m to the WNW. Presumably, the square barrow is the only upstanding element of what was formerly an extensive cemetery.
