Summary

A ring ditch was recorded on Plateau 2 of the Thanet Earth excavations (it is one of two in the area). the ring ditch was relatively small, only about 7m in diameter. It is likely that it represents the former site of a burial mound (barrow) though no burial was recorded (possibly it was removed by later disturbance. (location accurate to the nearest 1m based on available information)
