Full description
Cropmarks of a rather elliptical ring ditch or penannular enclosure - possibly a hengi-form monument, or even the ditch for a pair of barrows. Part of a small group of ring ditches, with a linear feature and rectangular enclosure (see PRN 50747).{1}{2}{3}
The monument includes the buried remains of a late Neolithic hengi-form monument and two Bronze Age bowl barrows situated on the northern bank of the Waithe Beck, some 500m east of St Andrew's church. An infilled and buried linear boundary ditch abuts the western arc of the barrows and a sample of this feature, together with the intervening ground between the hengi-form monument and the barrows is also included in the scheduling.{5}
