What is recorded here

Raised circular area (int. diam. 28.9m) enclosed by a low earthen bank which has been extensively modified and incorporated into the field boundary. An earlier report (OPW 1968) noted traces of a wide, shallow external fosse from NE-S-NW and suggested that the original entrance may have been at SE.
