What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Double ditched enclosure E of Thornton Farm as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
A double-ditched enclosure east of Thornton Farm is a likely early-medieval ringfort, or rath, characterized by concentric ditches and banks, typical of Iron Age or early Christian settlements in Britain. Local folklore sometimes associates such sites with fairy realms or ancient druidic activity, though specific traditions for this site are not recorded.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
