If I could inject a note of pessimisim into this topic, I can't help noticing that the features within the putative fort look very much like field drains. These are often configured as a series of parallel drains running obliquely into a central collector drain, as seen on this AP. Of course this doesn't mean that the main cropmark feature isn't archaeological, but the fact that it has a common alignment with the apparent collector drain does make me a bit suspicious.
