What is recorded here

Situated atop a NW-SE ridge in undulating pasture. Raised circular area (diam. c. 20-25m) enclosed by a stony bank (ext. H 1.4m at NW). A modern field boundary which extends around the site at NE may respect the curve of a pre-existing fosse. At the foot of the bank at SW and W is a ditch or gully (Wth 1.8m; D 1m) which then swings away from the site and extends for c. 10m NW. This appears to be a relatively modern feature. The site is densely overgrown with scrub rendering detailed inspection impossible. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
