What is recorded here
On a low rise in undulating pasture. Circular area (diam. 25m) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 3.6-4m; int. H 0.4-0.6m; ext. H 1m) with external fosse (Wth 2-2.5m). The fosse is realtively well preserved at NW-N. Elsewhere it is evident only as a slight depression marked by a growth of rushes. A break in the bank at E, with evidence for a causeway (Wth 2.5m) across the fosse, marks original entrance. Within the SE quadrant is a possible hut site (SL022-017001-).
