What is recorded here

Situated on a slight rise, in gently undulating, rough pasture, with good views in all directions. Bishopstown House lies c. 10m to SE and modern outbuildings lie c. 12m to W. Ringfort (WM024-139----) lies c. 15m to NW. Monument described in the 1970s as a roughly circular-shaped earthwork defined by a bank. The exterior of the bank is very sharp and appears to have been steepened in modern times and clad with a relatively modern stone facing. It is almost reduced to a scarp, where it is very low on the interior. The original entrance is not recognisable, although there is a modern gap at NE. There is no visible trace of an external fosse. The interior rises slightly from the perimeter towards the centre and has been planted with apple trees. A house site (WM024-140001-) is within the E quadrant.
