What is recorded here
No visible earthwork remains, only a faint shadow in the grass where the fort stood. It vanished before human memory, leaving behind a hollow shape the land still remembers. What was forgotten is not gone, only waiting to be remembered again.
In low-lying pasture, on very gentle S-facing slope. Monument, depicted on 1841 OS 6-inch map as embanked circular enclosure (diam. c. 20m), has been levelled. No trace of monument evident when inspected.
