What is recorded here

In improved pasture, on a W-facing slope. Remains of an oval area (dims. 23m N-S; 19m E-W) defined by a low scarp (Wth 2m; H 0.15m), which is only barely traceable from SE-SW, and the slight trace of a fosse from W-NW. The field boundary to the S has been removed. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
A local fairy fort (ringfort/rath); wider significance not recorded.
