Aerial Photographic Interpretation (10 December 1992)
Cropmarks on air photographs have revealed at least two ring-ditches to the WSW of the double-ditched enclosure NO13SW 11, while a third ring-ditch lies about 80m to the S; the latter measures about 18m in internal diameter. The other two are of a type grouped together as 'interrupted ring-ditches' in the survey of South-east Perth. The characteristic form of these structures is a curving mark extending out of the interior through a gap in the perimeter. In these cases the ring-ditches measure about 15m in diameter internally and the curving marks are relatively short features. Additional curving marks to the W may indicate the presence of other ring-ditches hidden in less responsive areas of cropmarking.
