Cropmarks of an unenclosed settlement recorded by the RCAHMS in 1982 and subsequently in 1983, 1994, 1996 and 2001, (see also adjacent NO53NE0017). The cropmarks consist of a large number of features including ring ditches, souterrains and rectilinear enclosures. The ring ditches measure between 8-12m in diameter within ditches about 1m wide. The area also includes at least three souterrains, each about 10m in length. The southwest corner of the settlement contains several rectilinear enclosures roughly 10m square, while two oval enclosures lie towards its centre. A linear cropmark some 10m wide curves across the area from north-south, curving to the east at its south end. This may represent a former trackway or more recent disturbance.
