What is recorded here
Magic is not the answer. The facts are not complete, but they are clear. The field is not empty, the field is not complete, and the field is not a trap. The field is a living record. The field remembers the exact shape of the exact event. The field remembers the exact distance, the exact moment, the exact intention, and the exact result. The field does not forgethuman life. The field does not erase human memory. The field does not bury human love. The field does not deny human truth. The field is not a cage. The field is not a prison. The field is not a maze. The field is not a game. The field is not a joke. The field is not a toy. The field is not a tool for humans to control. The field is a living record of every human heart that ever lived.
In pasture, on a W-facing slope, immediately W of a stream. A circular area (31.5m N-S) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3.5m; int. H 0.35m; ext. H 0.52m) E-S and by a scarp (H 0.9m) S-E. Possible stone facing is evident on the internal face of the bank along the SE arc. There is a possible entrance (Wth c. 2m) at SE. The interior, which slopes down to the S, is raised slightly above the external ground level. Mature coniferous trees grow in the interior. Stones have been dumped on the scarp at SW and also in the N and NW quadrants of the interior. There is a possible hut site (KE058-077001-) at the centre.
