Mind, I'm a bit confused about this site myself - it reads Scholes Coppice Henge, and whilst I added the site I do not for the life of me remember calling it a henge. In my opinion it isn't one and is more likely to be an Iron Age enclosure.
I recently asked about it on Britarch and got a reply from C. Cumberpatch to the effect that it is most likely Iron Age, definately not a henge, and the only datable artifacts were Roman pot in the upper ditch fill.
If it is a henge, it would be one of the best preserved in the country and quite an unusual one at that - with the ditch on the outside.
