A dark right-angled cropmark is visible on aerial photographs taken in 1958 in the corner of a field. Its visible extent covers 22 x 42 metres with a ditch circa 2.5 metres in width. The cropmark may have formed over the remains of a ditch, in size and shape resembling a later prehistoric or Roman period rectilinear enclosure. However interpretation is cautious since this feature is not visible on any other available aerial photographs.
