First recorded as a possible concentric triple ditched enclosure visible as a cropmark on aerial photographs taken in 1947, further exmination of aerial photographs indicate that the marks are more likely to have been caused by mid-twentieth century agricultural activity.

The dark curvilinear marks visible on aerial photographs taken in 1947, previously interpreted as a concentric ditched enclosure, were re-examined as part of this project and interpreted as probable cultivation marks of mid-twentieth century date. Some are contiguous with linear cultivation marks that run parallel to the field boundary, and they are not visible on any other available aerial photographs.
