What is recorded here

That is the facts available. I can build the story around the place, what the place does, where it sits, and the people who experienced it.
In pasture, on SE-facing slope. Monument, depicted as embanked circular enclosure (diam. c. 50m) on 1923 OS 6-inch map, is now covered by dense overgrowth. As far as could be ascertained site is enclosed by an earthen bank (ext. H c. 1m) with an external fosse (D 1.6m). Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011
