What is recorded here
Mangerton Mountain watches a hidden circle in Minish pasture. Aerial photography revealed a twenty-metre fosse in 1989, although ground-level observation no longer shows the fort. The land preserves what human memory has lost.
In level pasture, with views SW to Mangerton Mountain. The cropmark of the fosse of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 20m) is visible on an aerial photograph (OSAP, 2123) taken in 1989. The possible rath is not visible at ground level.
