What is recorded here
Situated on top of a long, almost flat-topped ridge running NE-SW, in pasture, with a good view to S, restricted by surrounding hillocks in other directions. In the centre of ringfort (WM025-077----) are the remains of a subrectangular-shaped house site (overall dims. 14m NE-SSW; 10.8m NW-SE) which consists of a raised platform defined by a sharp scarp (max. H 1m) of earth and stone. Two short banks project from the NW side and may define an adjoining annexe (overall dims. 3.5m NE-SW; 2m NW-SE).
