What is recorded here

OS 25-inch map where only the curving field bank at S indicates the location of the levelled monument. The curving field boundary visible from S-W follows line of enclosing bank of ringfort which has been levelled elsewhere and is clearly visible on Digital Globe aerial photograph taken November 2011.
