DescriptionRoyal Commission aerial reconnaissance during the 2018 drought on 10th July 2018 identified a bivallate cropmark enclosure 130m north-east of Traian farm. The enclosure is oval, aligned north-south, and measures approx. 50m x 36m. The enclosure has a broad inner ditch, and a more narrow outer ditch, and narrows at the southern end where a gateway is sited at the apex. The enclosure sits at the edge of a wider ploughed out field system identified through aerial survey, and some 300m north of the Traian rectangular enclosure (NPRN 401897).
