Enclosure

Enclosure, large enclosure

What is recorded here

On a slight rise in undulating pastureland. This fairly well-preserved enclosure (96m N-S; 71m E-W), roughly trapezoidal in plan and narrowing towards SE, is defined by an earthen bank and external fosse; the latter is only evident along the W side. An earthen bank which crosses the interior from ENE to WSW may be associated. Another field boundary runs across it from NNW to SSE.
