Full Description

A small ring ditch, possibly the foundations or drip gulley of a later prehistoric round house, is visible as a cropmark circa 300 metres to the east of Kembroke Hall, Bucklesham parish, centred on circa TM267412. The ditch is approximately 1.5 metre wide enclosing an area of circa 7 metres diameter. No entrance is apparent. It appears to be respected by the neighbouring field boundaries within the extensive complex BUC 017, and could be of similar date. A similar feature can be seen circa 380 metres to the south (see BUC 086). (S1, S2)
