What is recorded here
On a hillock, close to a stream in undulating pastureland. Poorly preserved subcircular enclosure (62m NE-SW; 56m NW-SE) defined by bank (Wth 1.9m; base Wth 8.9m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 2.2m) from SSE to S and from NW to NNW; elsewhere a scarp forms the enclosing element. A gap at S appears to be modern. There is a children's burial ground (GA100-067001-) in the E half of the interior.
