What is recorded here

On a gradual S-facing slope in rolling pastureland. Roughly oval mound at base (c.27m N-S; c. 20.5m E-W) with more circular flat top (14m NE-SW; 14.3m E-W) and is 4.23m H above exterior (in N quadrant). Very steep-sided with substantial drop to the exterior. The sides have been badly truncated, particularly the E side which has been quarried into. At the base of the mound in the N quadrant there is a slight dip (c.4m Wth; 0.3m D) which appears to be a silted-up fosse, a wide fosse is clearly indicated on the 2nd (1906) ed. OS 6-inch map at the base of the mound on all sides except the S quadrant. The SE quadrant has a lot of slippage resulting in a very gradual slope at this point.
