What is recorded here
Situated in a hollow in an undulating landscape. Archaeological monitoring (02E0228) of a golf development identified a burnt mound consisting of an area of dark soil (dims 8.5m E-W; 5m N-S) with burnt sandstone and charcoal inclusions which constituted only the edge of a slightly raised circular area (diam. c. 20m) just SE of motte (ME048-005----). The golf course was re-designed in the vicinity and a fallow buffer provided around the monument. (Clutterbuck 2003, 2004)
