Cropmarks or soilmarks of a potentially prehistoric circular enclosure are visible on aerial photographs of October 1946. The cropmarks are somewhat fragmentary and poorly defined but have been interpreted as defining a possible enclosure circa 50metres in diameter. The possible enclosure is not visible on later aerial photographs.
