What is recorded here

In pasture. Indicated on the 1st (1839-40) ed. OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m), located c. 30m E of another similarly sized enclosure (KK019-040----) where a number of human burials (KK019-040001-) were uncovered. On the 1945-6 revision of the 6-inch map it is indicated as a roughly oval area outlined by a dashed line, with trees indicated in the interior. The monument appears to have been levelled as it is not visible on satellite imagery (Google Earth Pro, 20 November 2005 - 17 September 2019).
