Full Description
The report on the survey noted that the enclosure was similar in shape and dimentions to oval tree enclosures mapped within the 19th-century parkland in the area, but that no tree enclosure was mapped in this location; this may be a similar, possibly earlier tree enclosure, or it may be a ditched enclosure of much earlier date (Donaldson 2024).
