What is recorded here
In the NW corner of a pasture field, located in relatively flat, lowlying coastal pasture. Very slightly raised, subectangular or roughly trapezoidal area (24.5m NNE-SSW; 25.5m WSE–ESE on NNE side, 21m on SSW side) with slightly rounded corners, particular the SE corner, defined on all four sides by a bank (Wth 2.4m; int. H 0.1m; ext. H 0.35-0.4m). The bank appears as a low, relatively flat-topped grass-covered rise, with a distinct external scarp but with a poorly defined inner edge which is almost flush with interior ground level. Immediately outside the bank at S, there is a roughly oval, grass-covered rise or mound (6m E–W; 2.5-3m N–S; H 0.45m), with a similar but smaller mound (4m E–W; 2.5m N–S; H 0.4m) 2m to W.
