What is recorded here

A circular enclosure (diam. c. 40m) is shown on the 1838 OS 6-inch map; it is not shown on later map editions, although a kink in a NE−SW field fence is indicated on the 1915 OS 6-inch edition, which probably preserved the NE arc of the enclosure. There is no visible trace of the enclosure at ground level; a modern bungalow with associated garden now occupies the location.
