What is recorded here
On top of a hillock in pastureland. This much-collapsed and almost circular drystone wall (diam. c. 24m) is of similar build to the surrounding field walls. It does not appear to have been built on the line of an earlier wall or bank. The interior is uneven and overgrown with trees and some rock-outcrop is visible. It is most likely that the wall was built to enclose the tree copse.
