What is recorded here
Situated on a slight natural rise on the SW edge of poorly drained peatland, with good views to the NW & SE. Higher well drained pasture-land to S, W and NW. A slightly raised circular area (approx. diam. 23m) defined by a low a bank of earth and stones, best preserved from SSE-S-W-WNW. Possible entrance gap at S. There is no trace of an enclosing fosse. The raised interior is rather uneven and it rises from the perimeter towards the centre, where the outline of a possible house site (WM005-006001---) is visible.
