Indicated

In pasture, located on a rise on a roughly E–W ridge, with good views along the valley of the the Gweestion River and of the surrounding undulating landscape. A possible fording point of the river is c. 100m to SW. A circular enclosure (diam. 25-30m) is shown on 1838 OS 6-inch map; it is not shown on later map editions. The enclosure appears to have utilised a natural rise or projection on the ridge. Traces of a stony scarp (H 1.1m at SE, 2.6m at SW) survive SE–SW in a shallow arc (L 33m E–W), enhanced by the steep natural slope. A portion of the scarp has a slightly raised lip (Wth c. 2m; int. H 0.15m) at its outer edge, which may preserve the S arc the enclosure. A field fence, which traverses the ridge top on an E–W axis, lies c. 7m to N of the curving scarp. No trace of the enclosure is visible to N of the fence. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 2 July 2021
