Outlined

Situated on a small knoll (136m/445ft OD) on the northern shoulder of a very steep hill, in pasture. No antiquity depicted at this location on the 1837 OS 6-inch map. Depicted on the revised 1913 ed. OS 25-inch map as a roughly square-shaped tree-plantation. Described in 1983 as a roughly square-shaped area (dims. 34m E-W x 33m N-S) enclosed by an earth and stone bank (H 1m) that has been rebuilt as a stone faced wall at the NW corner. There are no indications of an external fosse. Square shaped enclosure attached by a linear bank (approx. L 22m; basal Wth 2m; H 1m) forming an avenue leading into a circular-shaped enclosure/tree ring to NE. Earthwork visible as a roughly square-shaped tree-plantation with tree-ring to NE on Digital Globe aerial photography. Probably the remains of a tree-plantation of post-1700 date forming part of the designed landscape belonging to Hallstown House located 710m SSE. Several other circular-shaped enclosures to the S and SE also appear to be the remains of tree-rings of post-1700 date.
