What is recorded here
On natural rise in hilly terrain. Monument not accessible due to dense, impenetrable scrub. It is depicted on the 1st (1840) and 2nd (1907) ed. OS 6-inch map as a small, circular area. The 25-inch OS map depicts an irregular-shaped enclosure (dims. c. 30m N-S; c. 25m E-W), defined from W-N-SE by scarp which may have been quarried into in the E quadrant and by a bank from SE-S-W. Quite a wide fosse is indicated on the W side, from SW-W-NW. It is located immedately S of a large enclosure (TS087-011001-).
