What is recorded here
On a S-facing slope in pastureland. Poorly preserved subrectangular enclosure (30.5m N-S; 28.4m E-W) defined by a bank and external fosse. The bank is visible on all sides except S the side where a scarp forms the enclosing element. The fosse survives from SW through N to NE. A gap (Wth 3m) at N may be original. (McCaffrey 1952, 144, no. 14a)
