What is recorded here

On a SW-facing slope in pasture. A raised circular area (diam. 48m) enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone (Wth 3.9m; H 0.3m) with the remains of a shallow external fosse (Wth 3.1m; D 0.4m). The bank has been modified and incorporated into field boundaries from WSW-W-N and from E-ESE-SE. The fosse only survives from WSW-W-NW where it has been deepened and reused as a field drain. Elsewhere both the bank and fosse have been levelled but their outlines are still identifiable. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F.
