A cropmark of a double ring ditch of Bronze Age date is visible on aerial photographs (S1). The grid reference for this ring ditch has been corrected from TG 3156 0051 to TG 3160 0056. It is sub-circular in plan and has a narrow outer ditch with a diameter of 23m. The narrow inner ditch has a diameter of 18m. It is likely that this ring ditch is of Bronze Age date and that it relates to a round barrow. It forms part of a dispersed barrow cemetery (NHER 49492).
