A small ring ditch was visible on aerial photographs of 1984 as a cropmark on the gentle south-west facing slopes to the east of Horswell Cottage, Broad Clyst. The cropmark was on average around 1 metre wide and enclosed an area approximately 8 metres in diameter. No internal features were identifiable. It is possible that the cropmark had formed over the buried remains of a drip gulley of a small round house of probable later prehistoric to Roman date.
