Cropmarks of uncertain origin are visible on aerial photographs of 1999, to the south of Horn Hill. The two curvilinear cropmarks form a regular oval-shaped feature which measures approximately 34m in length by 21m in width. Whilst the cropmarks may be of archaeological origin, for example a prehistoric enclosure, their form and regularity suggest they are more likely to be of recent origin, as agricultural marks or from the possible use of the field as a paddock. The cropmarks were, however, recorded in the event that future archaeological remains are recorded within the vicinity which may warrant a re-interpretation of this cropmark feature. The cropmarks were not visible on other aerial photographs or digital images.
