Monument record MDO41689 - Probable late prehistoric enclosure, Barford Farm, Pamphill

Linear ditched features to the northwest of Barford Farm are visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs. The features form a partial sub-rectangular enclosure and may be Iron Age or Romano-British in date. They were digitally plotted by the Dorset Stour NMP project.

Linear ditched features to the northwest of Barford Farm are visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs (1).

The features appear to form a partial sub-rectangular enclosure 40m by 33.6m; the west side and part of the south side are not visible. The enclosure is situated around 50m east of a probable Iron Age to Romano-British settlement (MDO41687). It is possible that the enclosure is broadly contemporary with these features, most likely Iron Age or Romano-British in date

The features were digitally plotted by the Dorset Stour NMP project.
