Full Description

Square and rectilinear features east of Tilmanstone, visible as cropmarks in the 2007 Google Earth image. Consists of a sub-square feature, c.20m square, and a more irregulare feature immediately adjacent to the SW. Also a rectilinear feature, c16m NW-SE x c.10m NE-SW. These may be natural geological features, but as they are located on a small island within the centre of a palaeochannel (clearly visisble on the 2007 Google Earth image), they may be anthropogenic.


Enclosure at NGR. Second enclosure at TR 31515012. Ring ditches at TR 31485001, TR 31495021, TR 31555028. Also 'probably tumulus (site)' (17) showing as ring ditch at TR 31455002. (1,2)
