What is recorded here
In improved wet pasture, liable to floods, on the N side of the Mahore River. Identified as one of two earthworks (LI032-168/169----) by Westropp (1922, 71) which he described as follows: ‘Two rather large defaced earthworks beside the Mahore……on a gently rising ground, at Castle Farm, to the north of Hospital’. The precise location of this earthwork cannot be confirmed as no earthwork is visible in this general area on aerial images.
