What is recorded here

Danish Fort on a 1750 map, gone from every map after. Level pasture now, a straightened stream thirty metres north. The fort may have been a ring of stones, a boundary, a mistake or a warning. It stopped being visible to the people drawing lines, which is when many places become fairy stories.

Situated on a level landscape with a canalised SE-NW section of a stream c. 30m to the N. An enclosure described as a ‘Danish Fort’ is depicted on an estate map (Wogan 1750, 27), but it is not depicted on any later maps. No archaeological feature is visible at ground level in pasture.
