What is recorded here
Located on a slight N-S spur with N-S streams c. 480m to the E and c. 420m to the SW. This is a circular grass-covered area (diam. 39m) defined by an earthen bank, best preserved (Wth c. 3m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 2.3m) in a field bank NE-SW, and an external fosse (Wth c. 4m; D 0.5m). From SW-W-NE the bank is reduced to a scarp (H c. 0.4m) with an outer silted fosse (Wth of top c. 5m). There is no visible entrance.
