?A causewayed enclosure was a sizeable circular or oval area enclosed by a large bank and ditch,? said Dan Ratcliffe from the Council?s Historic Environment Service. ?These sites date to the early Neolithic ? a period which also saw the first introduction of agriculture to Britain, the domestication of animals, the manufacture of pottery, and the first appearance of large communally built and used ceremonial monuments.
