What is recorded here
In pasture, located on the narrow top of a N–S ridge which provides good views in all directions.
This possible enclosure is not shown on the 1838 OS 6-inch map; on the 1930 edition, a D-shaped area (c. 25m N–S; c. 25m E–W) is outlined by a dashed line, bordered on the straight side to W by a N–S field boundary. The outline of the D-shaped area can no longer be traced. At the location is an area of disturbed ground incorporating an irregular-shaped depression (c. 12m NE–SW; 4-6m NW–SE; D 0.8m), partly infilled with stones, and with hazel trees growing in and around it. The N–S field boundary on its W side has been removed.
