What is recorded here
That is the name of the place. The story is a human memory, not a claim about the gods. The field is not a joke or a fantasy. It is a place where people lived, loved, failed, worshipped, fled or created. The chamber is an empty room. The claim is not that the gods speak through the chamber. The chamber is a place where human memories still move. The field is not a dream. The name is not a mistake. The story is not a joke. The field is a place where people still remember.
On a low rise in pasture. Depicted as a circular enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. A slightly raised circular area (diam. c. 30m) delimited by a poorly defined scarp (H 0.5-1m). There is no trace of a fosse and the original entrance is not recognisable.
