Full description
1977. NAU aerial photography.
Possible cropmark of ring ditch formerly partly overlain by now destroyed section of the Devil's Ditch. However it is enmeshed with a D-shaped enclosure on its east and an oval mark on its west leading to an old pit, and may only be some recent result of extraction from this.
E. Rose (NAU), 19 January 1979.
