What is recorded here

Located on a fairly level landscape. A circular grass-covered enclosure (diam. c. 80m), probably defined by a fosse, is visible on Map Genie (1995). It is within a larger enclosure (diam. c. 150m), again probably defined by a fosse that can only be traced N-ESE on the same image but relict drains extend NNW and NNE from this outer feature. The enclosures can also be viewed on Map Genie (2013-18) where the outer feature can also be seen extending ESE-SW. It was first reported by Katherine Daly. See the attached views from (_01) Map Genie (1995) and (_02) Map Genie (2013-18) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 8 October, 2018
