What is recorded here
Situated on a S-facing slope on a gentle rise in very undulating terrain with a possible ringfort (TN047-076) to the S. Depicted on the 1st ed. (1843) OS 6-inch map as a roughly circular enclosure but not indicated on subsequent 1952-3 ed. The site has been levelled but is barely visible as a roughly raised circular area (diam. c. 40m N-S; 22.5m E-W) defined by a gently sloping scarp (H 0.36m). No visible trace of the site E of the field boundary.
