The cropmarks of a probable Bronze Age double ring ditch are seen on aerial photographs (S1-S3). The ring ditch most likely relates to the site of a Bronze Age round barrow. The smaller Bronze Age ring ditch previously recorded as part of this record is now recorded under NHER 65770 and is located approximately 33m to the south. A possible later prehistoric pit alignment (NHER 65771) is also visible in close proximity (approximately 30m) to the west. The monument polygon has been updated to the position of the double ring ditch as seen on the aerial photographs.
