What is recorded here
Marked only on the 1915 ed. of the OS 6-inch map as a D-shaped wood, and situated on a gentle S and W-facing slope in a low-lying landscape. Subrectangular or D-shaped grass-covered area (dims 59m E-W; 48m N-S) planted with deciduous trees, defined by an earthen bank (Wth 2.7-4m; int. H 0.1-0.35m; ext. H 0.6-1m) on all sides except the S where it is reduced to a scarp (H 1m). There is no visible fosse, but there are entrance gaps at ESE (Wth 4m) and SSE (Wth 4m). It might be a tree-ring.
