Aerial Photographic Transcription (19 March 2012)
These two roundhouses have been recorded as cropmarks on oblique aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 1977). They are both curvilinear in plan and defined by a ditch about 1.8m wide. The enclosed area of each is about 10m in diameter. The N roundhouse has an entrance 2m wide at the E, and the S roundhouse has an entrance 2.6m wide at the ESE. There are also cropmarks of three linear ditched features 57m to the ESE, and a scatter of pits close to the roundhouses.
