Enclosure in Downs

Enclosure

What is recorded here

In pasture, on S-facing slope. Monument, depicted as embanked ovoid enclosure (c. 30m N-S; c. 45m E-W) on 1923 OS 6-inch map, is now largely inaccessible due to dense overgrowth. As far as could be ascertained the enclosing element consists of a low earthen bank with a shallow external fosse. Field boundary skirts enclosing element E->S, as does public road S->W. Both of these may have truncated enclosing element. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011
