A cropmark of a ring ditch, probably a Bronze Age round barrow, is visible on aerial photographs (S1-S4). The central grid reference for this cropmark has been corrected from TF 7280 3580 to TF 7278 3577. Due to confusion over the exact location of this cropmark, it has also previously been recorded as NHER 33734. The ring ditch is sub-circular in plan and shows clearly on some aerial photographs (S1-S3). On other aerial photographs (S4) it appears as a small rectangular enclosure, which was the cause of the confusion and duplicate recording of this site. The ditch is up to 4m wide and the ring ditch has an external diameter of 33m. It is likely that this ring ditch is of Bronze Age date and that it relates to a round barrow. It is located on a south facing slope at approximately 32m OD. Other ring ditch cropmarks are present 470m to the southwest (NHER 11894) and around 600m to the southeast (NHER 12157, 43328).

A low mound is visible at this location on visualised lidar data from a survey flown in 2018 (S5). It probably represents the remains of the internal mound belonging to the round barrow described above. As the lidar survey was flown relatively recently, it is likely that the earthwork still survives.
