Cropmarks of linear ditches, circa 2m wide, which define a possible rectilinear enclosure, circa 46m long by 40m wide, are visible. The south and west sides of the enclosure are fairly well-defined, although those to the north and east are barely perceptible. The southwest corner of this enclosure intersects with curvilinear enclosure MDV125727.
