What is recorded here

Dicksborough holds a small earthen ring on a low hill, its twenty-six metre interior hidden beneath dense hawthorn and bramble. The bank stands barely taller than a person, yet the quarry cut nearby and the hollow southern ground suggest the circle has watched the land change for centuries. People may have lived, buried secrets or simply marked the horizon there before forgetting the names that once belonged to the place.

On brow of a low hill, with a disused quarry running up to the W edge. There are good views from NW-N-E. A small, circular area (int. diam. 26m) enclosed by a denuded earthen bank (int. H 1.45m; ext. H 1.4m; Wth 2.2m) covered in dense overgrowth of hawthorn and brambles. There is an entrance (Wth 2m) visible at the NNW. A number of smaller breaches are visible throughout the circumference. The interior is quite hollow on the S side. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 21 September 2020
