What is recorded here
On a S-facing slope in pastureland. Very poorly preserved subcircular enclosure (84m E-W; 75m N-S) defined by a low bank and external fosse from SW through W to NW; elsewhere a scarp forms the enclosing element. A field wall cuts across the monument from NW to SW. A gap (Wth c. 6m) at E may be original.
