A ring ditch is visible as a cropmark on the lower slopes of a hill to the west of Hele on aerial photographs of 1996. The ditch is up to 2 metres in width and encloses a roughly circular area approximately 24 metres in diameter. The ring ditch might be the remains of a barrow of Bronze Age or Roman date. It was possibly part of a group or cemetery with further cropmarks located to the south and south. Linear cropmarks that appear to abut the ring ditch to the north-east might be evidence of later boundaries aligned upon the former earthwork.
