Abstract:		 Aerial photographs taken in 2000 revealed previously unrecognised cropmark features associated with the Late Neolithic palisaded enclosures at West Kennet, Wiltshire. The site was first recognised in 1987 and subject to research excavations by Alasdair Whittle of Cardiff University between 1987 and 1992. Those excavations were published in Whittle (1997), the site plan being based largely on RCHME transcription of the known cropmarks (RCHME 1992). The major new discoveries in 2000 were a pit or timber circle, a formally defined entrance and passage into one of the enclosures, and a straight length of probable palisade ditch connecting one of the enclosures to a newly-recognised enclosure 220 metres to the southeast. The new features were transcribed and described in October and November 2002 as a contribution to an article to be published in the Wiltshire Archaeological and Natural History Magazine (Barber et al. 2003). The purpose of this report is to describe and discuss more fully the features observed and the methods used in transcribing them. In addition, the transcription has been extended south to include additional features not included (for reasons of space and time) in the WANHM article.
