What is recorded here

In pasture, on a gentle SW-facing slope. A circular area (diam. c. 7m N-S) enclosed by a shallow fosse (Wth 0.9m at base; D 0.8m) and a low external earth and stone bank (Wth 1.9m; int. H 0.8m; ext. H 0.35m). A possible entrance is at NE, with a possible causeway across the fosse. The fosse and bank are very overgrown with furze and briars along the W arc while along the NE arc they have been poached by cattle. The interior, which is covered with overgrowth, is marginally higher than the external ground level and is slightly convex at the centre.
