Full Description

A ring ditch with an internal mound is visible as a cropmark on aerial photographs. This features close proximity to another mound of uncertain age (MDO2822) suggests these two features may be related and could possibly be Bronze Age bowl barrows, although for this particular feature a post medieval extractive pit or pond cannot be ruled out either. {1}
