Date of upload: 2 August 2013 - KE015-146: Burnt spread, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CKE015-146----. This levelled burnt spread is situated on dry ground, approximately 100m to the W of a large area of wet boggy ground. What remains of this monument is a series of patches of burnt and fire-cracked sandstone mixed with topsoil, probably the result of levelling by machine in the recent past. The patches of burnt stone were spread across an area measuring approximately 15m N-S by 12m E-W. A possible stone-filled trough was noted, measuring 3.5m NW-SE by 1.5m NE-SW. The entire area was covered in terram and topsoil and preserved in situ.
