A roughly circular pale cropmark, circa 13 metres in maximum visible diameter, is visible on aerial photographs taken in 1969. Located at the head of a plateau above a river valley to the east, the siting suggests that it could be the remains of a prehistoric barrow. No features were identified on other available aerial imagery and interpretation is tentative.
