Liscrow

In grassland. A subcircular rath (N-S 60m, E-W 52m), in fair condition, defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. A collapsed stone wall overlies the inner bank from NW through N to E. The outer bank survives from SW through W to NW. Quarrying has destroyed the enclosing, elements from S to SW. There is a probable Man-made underground passage (GA074-045001-) in the interior.
