What is recorded here
In improved pasture, on a steep NW-facing slope. Identified during a field inspection of an enclosure (TS066-133----), within which the ring-barrow is off-centre to the SW. An oval area (dims. 4.5m N-S; 3.7m E-W) defined by a fosse (Wth 2m; D 0.2m) and outer bank (Wth 3.1m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.18m) which is well preserved all around except from SSW-W-WNW. Three mature thorn trees are on bank in the W sector.
