SX 5983 9369 (FCE) A rapid examination of aerial photograph (NMR, SX 5693/1) suggests the presence of a possible curvilinear enclosure, of Prehistoric or Roman date, visible as a semi-circular hedgeline/earthwork c.250m south of Estrayer Park. There is no clear indication of the presumed remainder of the enclosure circuit but the shape of the hedgeline does suggest a curvilinear enclosure (citing Andrew Miller/16-JAN-1996/RCHME: AP Primary Recording Project).
