Cropmarks reveal three parallel lines of pits running from WSW to ENE across the field to the SE of Inchbare. Two of the lines of pits, which extend for a distance of at least 300m, are set about 20m apart, and unite at the WSW end in a square terminal; the third line lies about 10m to the SSE. Immediately S of the WSW end there are traces of a rectangular pit-defined structure measuring about 20m by 9m internally.
