Summary
An unknown enclosure was identified on an aerial photograph taken in 1928. An aerial photograph from just a few months later did not show this enclosure/camp.
There is nothing to be seen at ground level but it is possible that farm buildings, such as cowsheds and pigsties, once existed in this area.
