What is recorded here
On a NW-facing slope in grassland. Well-preserved subcircular rath (36.2m N-S; 32m E-W)
defined by two banks of earth and stone and an intervening fosse. No visible surface trace of the fosse and outer bank survive from NE to ESE. A gap (Wth 2m) in the inner bank at NE may be original. A field wall cuts across the fosse and outer bank from W to N.
