At Nova Scotia approximately 950m to the N of Brandon Dean Camp (Atlas No 3116) the cropmarks of a possible D-shaped enclosure. It is defined by a 3m wide ditch which where visible measures 54m N-S by 60m transversely. A modern field boundary cuts the site in the E and there is no cropmark formation beyond this. A short section of a right angled ditch lies 30m to the S of the enclosure. Not recorded on OS mapping. No further investigation is known, undated.
