Full Description
Small ring ditch adjacent to larger one, TYN 037, and three other smaller ones, TYN 038, 40-41. Circa 10m diameter. Next to field system, TYN 011, and enclosure, TYN 042 (S1).
A ring ditch of circa 10 metres diameter, probably the remains of a small Bronze Age barrow, can be seen on air photographs as a cropmark to the south of Innocence Cottage in Trimley St Martin parish, centred on circa TM27023898. The cropmark of the ditch appears to be between 1 and 2 metres wide on available photographs, with a maximum diameter of circa 10.5 metres. The enclosed area is circa 7 metres in diameter. Three similar sized possible barrows can be seen as ring ditches in the immediate area (TYN 038, TYN 040-041), probably satellites of a large probable barrow circa 7 metres to the north-west (see TYN 037).
