Full Description

From the report: "Standing on a curving artificial or augmented natural terrace c. 1.6m in height x c. 25m x c.12m, there is a slightly sunken (up to 0.2m) subrectangular probable former structure platform measuring c. 12m N/S x 4m E/W. It is set back c. 2.5m from the eastern edge of the terrace. The terrace
fades northwards into the natural slope but appears to have held a track between the probable platform and Burgess Farm. See plates 5 and 6. This area is not covered by the LiDAR." (1)
