Monument record TR 36 NW 210 - Enclosure and round barrow cropmarks, near Manston Airport, Minster

Summary

The cropmarks of enclosures and possible round barrows were previously identified in fields to the north of Minster next to the west end of the Manston Airport runway. This site is recorded in the Isle of Thanet Sites and Monuments Archive. It is also reported that an Anglo-Saxon coin hoard was found near this location, perhaps indicating that the barrows may date to this period.
