At NT 0810 0185 a possible scooped settlement was discovered situated in improved pasture at the western end of an esker running roughly E to W. The scoop measures 22m by 10m and is oriented along the crest of this ridge. There is no substantial trace of a surrounding bank and there is height difference of only approximately 0.3m between the middle of the scoop and its outer edge. No internal features are visible.
M P Robins 1993
There is no evidence to support the suggestion by Robins that this is a possible scooped settlement.
