Monument record MDO39396 - Prehistoric enclosures, Marnhull
Please read our guidance about the use of Dorset Historic Environment Record data.
Summary
Cropmarks on aerial photographs taken in 2005 appear to be two joined enclosures. Both are roughly 65 metres square, though wider at their northern side. Other cropmarks in the area are indistinct but suggest that these may be part of a larger complex of features. Possibly late prehistoric in date.
