The only person with a direct, sensory clue to its existence is the landowner, who has noticed that a particular area of the field is persistently stickier underfoot and underplough than the ground around it, a difference in soil texture or drainage that hints at buried structural remains disturbing the earth from below.

The site was identified not by excavation but from the air. An aerial photograph caught what ground-level observation cannot: a rectilinear enclosure, meaning a roughly rectangular defined space, most likely the remains of an early agricultural or settlement boundary, accompanied by a broader field system spreading across the slope. The location itself has the feel of a deliberately chosen one, a gradual east-facing slope set just below the flat-topped summit of a ridge, the kind of position that would have offered reasonable drainage, some shelter, and a useful vantage across undulating ground. Low undulations are visible in the field and may correspond to the buried features, though no clear pattern has been confirmed at ground level.
