What is recorded here
On high ground in upland area with good extensive views. Circular mound (H 0.7m - 1m; Top diam. 7m; base diam. 12m) enclosed by poorly preserved fosse with no evidence of an external bank. Large stones on top of mound probably the result of recent field clearance while sunken area on top may be due to modern digging.
