Aerial Photographic Transcription (9 March 2012)

This rectilinear enclosure has been recorded as a cropmark on oblique aerial photographs (Prof. Barri Jones, undated). It is rectangular in plan and defined by a ditch about 5.6m wide. The area enclosed by the N and W ditches is at least 50m across, but, as the S and E sides are missing, it is not possible to discern the overall extent of the monument.
