May 1946. RAF air photograph shows rectangular ditched enclosure as cropmark corresponding to Context 2 on NHER, although interior measurements are around 50m x around 40 m.
Irregularities also noted at Context 3 but not as clear, with one curving incomplete enclosure boundary.

December 2008. Image on Google Earth shows the rectangular enclosure seen on the 1946 air photo very clearly, which looks much like a moat as previously suspected. Most of the linear features to the west appear on the Tithe Map. See digital image (S3).
