What is recorded here
Situated on a fairly level landscape. The faint cropmark of a subcircular enclosure (int. dims c. 40m E-W; c. 35m N-S) defined by a slight and uncertain fosse is visible only on Apple Maps, which utilises a survey conducted by Blue Sky International during June 2018. The fosse has many interruptions but a gap (Wth c. 8m) at E could be an original entrance. It was first reported by Anthony Murphy.
