What is recorded here
Situated on a small natural terrace on ENE facing slope just below the summit of a high steep hillock with good views to the NE. A sub-circular shaped area (approx. diam. 23m N-S) enclosed by a low earthen bank and wide shallow external fosse. The bank is fragmentary and appears to have been steepened. There is a causeway (Wth 4.4m; H 0.2m) across the fosse at SSW but no corresponding entrance gap in the bank. Traces of cultivation ridges are visible running NE-SW across the interior of the monument, which rises gently towards the centre.
