What is recorded here
In level wet pasture on the NW side of a field system (TS057-016014-) with a barrow cemetery with a ring-barrow (TS057-016004-) 18m to the E and second (TS057-016009-) 8m to the SW with others nearby. Circular raised area (diam. 24m) enclosed by an earthen bank (int. H 0.2m; ext. H 1.3m; Wth at top 0.85m; overall Wth. 4m) with a wide flat-bottomed external fosse (Wth at base 3m; overall Wth 4.55m; D 0.3m). From SE-SSW the fosse is absent where a modern ENE-WSW orientated field drain abuts the external base of the bank at SSE. A break (Wth 3.5m) in the bank at NW, widened in modern times, marks the position of the original entrance. Interior is level and clear of overgrowth.
