Cropmarks are visible revealing part of a possible rectilinear enclosure that is centred on TF 9764 4062 and visible on 1946 RAF aerial photographs (S1). The ditches recorded run from TF 9762 4059 to TF 9763 4064, at which point it turns to the east and continues to TF 9767 4065, where the cropmarks may be masked by the modern field boundary. The possible enclosure is of unknown date, although it may be Roman. A Roman coin has been found in the surrounding area (NHER 24154).
