Full Description
TR 263678. Cropmarks of barrows and enclosures. Cropmarks indicate at least 5 large barrows linked to a complex system of ditches, perhaps superimposed rectangular enclosures. (1) Thanet cropmark plot shows 5 single-ditched ring ditches at TR 2626 6781 (2) and site photographs (3-5).
Also visible on the 2007 Google Earth image. A possible practice trench system runs across the site.
The cropmark remains of the five probable Bronze Age round barrows and an unassociated settlement and trackway described by the previous authorities have been mapped from aerial photographs as part of the Historic England Isle of Thanet Landscape mapping project in 2024. Each element has been been recorded individually as child records to this main record (6-8)
