What is recorded here

In pasture, located on a slight rise in an area of undulating rough and average pasture interspersed with areas of bog to NE and more extensive tracts to W and SW. Slightly raised circular area (18m N–S; 18.6m E–W) defined by a bank (Wth 1.65-2m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 0.9m). The external slope of the bank is cut to the vertical, the result of relatively recent modification. There are narrow breaks (max. Wth c. 1m) at SE, S, SW and W. The interior is level. The bank is thickly ringed with thorn bushes and brambles. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 25 July 2019
