Full Description
PRN 47402
A substancial, although degraded, curving earthwork bank identified from aerial photographs. The bank appears to curve around what is latterly the churchyard and thus defines a roughly oval to subrectangular enclosure, measuring approximately 1ha. Its size and curvilinear form suggest it may be late prehistoric in date. {1}
