What is recorded here

In gently undulating, level pasture. Circular area (dims. 21m N-S; 23m E-W) defined by low earthen bank (Wth 7.3m; int. H 0.45m; ext. H 0.9m) ESE-S-W-NNE which is reduced to a scarp (Wth 2.5m; H 0.65m) NNE-E-ESE. Bank and scarp are eroded on exterior corresponding to cattle breaches through bank at W, NW, NE and ESE. Fosse (overall Wth 7.6m; basal Wth 2.3m; D 0.4m) best preserved SW-NE. Fosse (Wth 1.6m; D 0.2m) is less defined NE-ESE. Wide lazy beds (long axis ENE-WSW) truncate interior across a distinct SE-facing slope. Depression in NW-quadrant, cut by lazy beds, may be a damaged barrow. Ditch barrow (TS066-57001-) is c. 3.5m to W. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
