What is recorded here
On a rise in otherwise low-lying marshy grassland, close to the E bank of the Kilcrow River. This
roughly rectangular enclosure (NW-SE 16.5m; NE-SW 15.2m), much obscured by overgrowth, is defined by a scarp and external fosse. A drainage ditch has been dug into the fosse at NE.
Possibly a small moated site. St. Corban's church (GA117-047001-) lies 150m to the SW on the opposite bank of the river.
