Description
The Monuments Protection Programme was a comprehensive review and evaluation of England's archaeological resource, designed to collect information to enhance the conservation, management, and public appreciation of the archaeological heritage. One of its principal aims was to identify those monuments and sites whose national importance and conservation needs justify some form of statutory protection (generally scheduling).
Scoring Remarks: Totally excavated, but no C14 samples taken. Possibly a stone circle with the stones removed, as several were noted nearby.
