What is recorded here
Situated on the E-facing slope of a low hillock in undulating countryside with a nearby enclosure (TN029-067) to the SE. A square-shaped area (dims. 27m E-W) enclosed by a well-preserved earth and stone bank (Wth 2m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 1m) with no evidence of an outer fosse or entrance feature. There is a lot of loosely piled rubble on top of the bank which possibly represents the remains of a stone wall. The bank was planted with hazelnut trees in the last century.
