What is recorded here

In pasture/grazing, located on a level terrace on the lower N-facing slopes of a large limestone hill named Red Hill on the 1913 OS 6-inch map. Circular area (18.5m E–W; 18m N–S) defined by a low, sod-covered stone bank/wall (Wth 1.2-1.4m; H 0.3m). The interior slopes gently down to E, reflecting the natural slope. At N, a large boulder marks the W terminal of a gap (Wth 3m) in the enclosing wall. Immediately to E of the gap, the enclosing bank is truncated by a shallow oval pit (6m NW–SE; 4m NE–SW). There are relict field boundaries, part of a field system (SL019-008005-) close to the enclosure, and there is a graveyard (SL019-007002-) c. 60m to NW.
