NHER 36389 (Cropmark and Earthwork record) - Cropmark of undated small trapezoidal enclosure

26 June 1996. NLA air photography.
Cropmark of a small rectilinear enclosure visible.
The site is intersected by a linear which is part of a field system which is marked on the 1902-7 2nd edition Ordnance Survey map.
It is likely that the enclosure pre-dates these fields.

The small trapezoidal ditched enclosure described above, the date and function of which are unknown, is visible as a cropmark on aerial photographs (S1). As described above, it overlaps – and presumably pre-dates – the cropmark of a probable post-medieval field boundary (this has not been mapped by the project). It lies approximately 300m to the south of the suggested line of a Roman road (NHER 2796), and in close proximity (approximately 30m to the southeast) of a possible Bronze Age round barrow (NHER 7244). It could feasibly be a funerary site or shrine, perhaps of Roman date, sited in relation to both these features, but this is purely conjecture. Roman coins, along with medieval and post medieval metalwork, have been recovered from the area (NHER 60364).
