Enclosure in Drumwood (solloghodmore Par.)

In flat, marshy terrain with hills visible to the N and W. A bowl-barrow (TS050-026----) is located 120m to the SE. A large enclosure, which may be a D-shaped annexe as it is immediately E of an embanked enclosure (TS050-024----). It is defined by a broad earthen bank (int. H 0.45m; ext. H 1.1m; Wth at crest 4m; overall Wth 13.5m) and the interior is wet and waterlogged with a lot of rushes. There is a gap of 6m between the embanked enclosure and the N bank of this enclosure and the S bank of this enclosure appears to run S of the embanked enclosure, though it broadens out at this point and there is a field bank surmounted by hedgerow which runs E-W along the edge of the embanked enclosure and though the S bank of this enclosure.
