Outlined

In marshy land that has since been drained. On a low rise of ground with church (WM033-031----) and graveyard (WM033-031001-) located 310m to W, motte and bailey (WM033-042---) and castle (WM033-043----) located 435m to the SSW. On the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map this monument is hachured as a roughly D-shaped enclosure (WM033-033----) with straight side at W and the outline of a rectangular house c. 20m to SW. On the revised 1910 ed. OS 25-inch map the enclosure is depicted as a semi-circular arc with straight W side and rectangular house site not depicted. To the SW of the D-shaped enclosure are the remains of an earth and stone bank which mark the site of the rectangular house site depicted on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map. The D-shaped enclosure and the house site appear to be surrounded by a larger roughly circular-shaped enclosure defined by two scarps with intervening fosse. Small field banks appear to radiate out from the house site and there are traces of cultivation ridges running N-S visible inside the larger enclosure. House site (WM033-033001-) standing inside enclosure (WM033-033----) can be clearly seen on Bing Maps aerial photograph taken between 06-07 November 2011 (www.bing.com/maps/).
