Rectilinear Enclosure
Roman
Cropmark
A rectilinear enclosure with internal features (a possible hut circle) and single entrance visible on aerial photographs as a crop mark, with a ring ditch just west of the site. Fainter crop-marks in the vicinity suggest that this site may have had a more complex pattern of occupation, but its phasing is presently unclear. Likely to be of late Iron Age or Romano-British date. SCHEDULED ANCIENT MONUMENT
