A possible platform of sub-rectangular plan is visible as a subtle earthwork and cropmark on aerial photographs taken between July 1946 and October 1946. It is bounded to the west by the field boundary, and visible on its north and east sides as dark linear cropmarks almost at right angles to each other. On the south is a natural scarp, and the earthwork feature may be a building platform that makes use of this natural feature. It is not visible on any later aerial photographs.
