What is recorded here

Fairy fort / ringfort in Woodlawn is a circular rath 32.5m wide on a grassland rise in the former Woodlawn Demesne. Its inner scarp, fosse and outer bank remain clear beneath dense growth, with an entrance gap at ESE and hollows inside. The low WNW bank may mark quarrying upcast, while the main ring endures as a made shape in the land.

On a rise in grassland within the former Woodlawn Demesne. Well-preserved but densely overgrown circular rath (D 32.5m) defined by an inner scarp, intervening fosse and outer bank. There is an entrance gap at ESE. A number of hollows are visible within the interior and a low bank (L 4.2m) at WNW is probably upcast from quarrying.
