What is recorded here

The 2011 source places it on a low rise in undulating countryside and records good views in all directions. It describes a poorly preserved 36-metre north-south by 35-metre east-west circular area enclosed by an earth-and-stone bank, mainly reduced to a scarp. The same account records the southern interior as quarried away and a modern north-south road cutting the inner bank at the west.
