What is recorded here

It sits on a north-facing slope in pasture, heavily overgrown but still distinct. People may have lived there, herded animals, or simply marked the ridge with a boundary the land still remembers.
In pasture, on N-facing slope of E-W ridge. Heavily overgrown, circular, raised area (29.7m N-S) enclosed by earthen bank (H 1.4m). Gap in bank to SE and SW.
