What is recorded here
On a gentle S-facing slope in rough pasture and hazel. A subcircular enclosure (int. diams. 8.4m E-W; 7m N-S; ext. diams. 11.1m E-W; 11m N-S) is defined by the remains of a collapsed, grassed-covered stone wall (Wth 1.2-2.8m; int. H 0.1-0.3; ext. H 0.4-0.5m). Some large stones are laid with their long axes along the wall circumference. The wall is absent from E to SE, but this does not appear to be an original entrance.
