The ring ditch described above is visible as a cropmark on aerial photographs (S2)-(S3), centred at TM 4995 9680. Although undated, it is most likely to represent the site of a Bronze Age round barrow, and to form, with other ring ditches to its west and east, a linear barrow cemetery SHER SOL 045.
