What is recorded here
In pasture on the crest of a S-facing slope. Hachured on both the first (1842) and Cassini (1920) editions of the OS 6-inch map. This poorly preserved D-shaped enclosure (int. diam. 20m E-W) with a straight E side (L 15.8m N-S) is defined along the E by a drystone wall, from S-W by a very slight bank (Wth 4-5m; H 0.4-0.8m) and from W-N by an even less substantial bank (Wth 1-1.3m; max. H 0.3m) of stone and earth. The bank from S-W is gapped and has a lot of large field stones (min. L 1m) added to it and may be modern and the result of spoil being deposited on this edge of the enclosure. At SW, there is also a large pile of stones inside the enclosing bank. There is another enclosure (CL017-033----) c. 60m to the W.
