What is recorded here
Situated on the S face of a ridge which runs NW-SE with good views from S-E-W. Annotated on the 1837 OS Fair Plan as ‘fort’, and depicted as a sub-circular earthwork (approx. diam. 30m N-S; 25m E-W) on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map. This site has been levelled. All that remains is a short segment of a wide shallow fosse at S. It is visible as a faint crop mark on the Digital Globe aerial photograph taken November 2011.
