NN82SE 75 8707 2038
Cropmarks on oblique aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 1988) reveal a palisade trench enclosing two crescentic cropmarkings on a slight rise. The enclosure measures about 23m from N to S by at least 20m transversely, but the E side is obscured by the edge of the field. The crescentic markings may mark the locations of circular houses measuring up to 8m in diameter.
