What is recorded here
On a rise in gently undulating grassland. Circular rath (diam. 33m), in fair condition, defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. The fosse and outer bank survive from E through S to NNE. There is a causewayed entrance gap (Wth 3m) at SE. Field walls cut through the monument at E and W. Two hollows in the N sector of the interior may mark the site of a possible Man-made underground passage (GA097-108001-).
