Full Description

Rectangular enclosure, approximately 75m x 30m. Entrance on E side and probably another on S side, within area of field systems and trackways, FRT 006 (S1)(S2).
Originally listed under FRT 006 (field system).
Formerly in Freston parish, with re-alignment of boundary now in Holbrook.

Cropmarks of a sqaure enclosure with an entrance to the west of prehistoric date. The enclosure is 42m by 43m, with an entrance, but no visible internal features. The enclosure lays within an extensive field system (FRT 006). The original description of a rectangular enclosure 75m by 30m probably refers to part of the field system rather than this enclosure. Helen Saunders (Essex County Council), February 2015. (S3-S4)
