What is recorded here
In pasture, on NW-facing slope c. 200m W of stream; view over valley to SW and N. Roughly circular raised area (32m N-S; 35m E-W) defined by scarp (H 3m), topped by low lip (H 0.3m) S->WSW, low bank (H 0.6m) WSW->WNW, overgrown to E; possible indications of fosse to S. Terrace (Wth 3m; 1.3m below top bank) along external face platform W->NW. To NE, sunken ramp-like feature (Wth 3.3m) leads from interior into field below; much interference around this area probably, due to quarrying (Power 1918, 189), and unclear whether this feature is original.
