Full Description

A rectilinear enclosure with several internal square enclosures, visible on aerial photos of 2008.

The enclosure is visible running E-W in a roughly straight line from TQ 5305 6061 to TQ 5333 6061, then running south to TQ 5334 6053, then running WSW to TQ 5323 6050. Two enclosure are visible in the NE corner, measuring roughly 15m square, with at least one further enclosure on the southern side of the site. Further small enclsoures are possible at TQ 5329 6048.

These features appear to exist as ridges rather than cropmarks, so the features may be relatively modern - perhaps relating to the nearby cold war installation (TQ 56 SW 200)?
