What is recorded here
On flat poorly drained reclaimed grassland with good views in all directions. Mainly levelled possible ringfort consisting of a circular-shaped area (approx. diam. 45m N-S; 32m E-W) enclosed by an earth and stone bank (top Wth 1m; base Wth 3m; int. H 0.4; ext. H 0.5m) which is now only visible in S quadrant. Piles of building rubble in and around area where monument was located. It is possible that the enclosing element of the ringfort has been bulldozed away in most places possibly when the monument was being used as a dump for building rubble.
