What is recorded here
In wet, marshy, low-lying terrain on a valley floor with a stream running along the W side of the enclosure. Oval area (diam. c. 43m N-S; 37.4m E-W) enclosed by a flattened bank (Wth 3.3m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.42m), in places reduced to scarp. A field boundary, consisting of an earthen bank, forms the NW quadrant and another runs along the N quadrant. The edge of the enclosure is very denuded due to cattle poaching. There is a lot of scrub on the edge of the enclosure, the W quadrant is the clearest. There is no definable entrance, however the bank is much denuded. Another enclosure (TS088-087----) is located c. 100m to the N.
