What is recorded here

On level ground at the base of a NW-facing slope. Hachured on the 1842 ed. of the OS 6-inch map and indicated with a solid line on the 1915 ed. A subrectangular enclosure (int. dims. 20m NW–SE; 15m NE–SW) defined by a drystone wall, incorporating some large erratic boulders and a relict field bank (Wth c. 3–4m; H 0.2m). There is no indication, beyond the 1842 OS 6-inch map, that this is of ancient origin. A shed has been built into the SE end.
