What is recorded here

A low rectangular east-facing headland flanked by gullies on either side. The natural defences seem to have been exploited by a fosse and two possible banks along the west. Not yet visited. The site lies in an area of fertile pasture with an unimproved strip along the shore. (Casey 2001) Date of upload: 20 January 2020
