A cropmark, the faint differential greening or browning of growing plants caused by buried features beneath the soil, traces out a small circular enclosure roughly five metres across, its outline formed by a single wide fosse, or ditch, between one and two metres across. The enclosure sits on a slight north-west-facing slope, and the ring-ditch appears only to the east of a neighbouring enclosure already recorded in the archaeological inventory, separated from it by about three metres.

Ring-ditches of this kind are generally interpreted as the surviving traces of prehistoric burial monuments, most often the ditches that once surrounded round barrows or cairns whose earthen mounds have long since been ploughed flat. What remains is the negative space, the cut of the original ditch slowly filled over centuries, retaining just enough difference in soil composition or moisture to influence what grows above it. This particular example was first reported by Catherine McLoughlin, who identified it from satellite imagery on Google Earth in July 2018. Its small diameter sets it apart from the kind of substantial enclosures associated with high-status settlement, suggesting a funerary or ritual function rather than a domestic one, though without excavation such readings remain provisional.
