What is recorded here
Located in a large arable field c. 40m SE of the Ward River and c. 230m WSW of Coolarath Bridge. Site located close to the N boundary of field. The enclosure can be seen on Google Earth (24 June 2018) coverage where it is visible as a positive cropmark. The site is circular in plan (ext. diam. c. 56.1m E-W and c. 55.2m N-S) defined by a ditch (Wth c. 2m). An irregular feature to the centre and to the W half of site appears to be associated with a 'gravel pit' indicated on the OS First ed. 6-inch map sheet (c. 1840) and the OS 25-inch map sheet (c. 1910) where it is indicated with 'tree' symbols.
