A circular pale cropmark, circa 10 metres is diameter is visible on aerial photographs of 1946, on the south-east facing slopes just below the crest of a hill to the south of Westacott Farm, Abbotsham. The cropmark might be interpreted as forming over a levelled earthwork mound. The cropmark is not visible on later aerial photographs available to the survey.
