What is recorded here
On a rocky rise and under scrub in improved pasture. A subcircular enclosure (diam. c. 24m) is indicated on the 1916 ed. of the OS 6-inch map and was recorded by Westropp (1901, 278) as a ‘bramble – pestered circular caher nearly levelled to the field and c. 80’ [24.4m] in diameter’. On inspection in 1999 no ground level remains were found.
