An extensive network of narrow dark irregular cropmarks, including semi-circular features, is visible on aerial photographs taken in 1975. They are interpreted as forming over geological irregularities, although one nearly complete circular feature is visible. This has been interpreted as a possible ring ditch, but it is not visible on any other available photographs and in form it strongly resembles the cropmarks of geological origin. It has therefore not been transcribed as part of this project.
