Full Description
Cropmark evidence identified from Google maps in 2011 by a member of the public has revealed a possible prehistoric settlement. There appears to be smaller circular cropmaks which may be round houses and larger circular cropmarks which may be henges. {1}{2}
The enclosures are also visible on Bing Maps but some of them may relate to work on the golf course that occupies the site. {3}
