No. Of two or more connected facts, at least one is wrong or invented.
On a low drumlin hill in pasture. A report in 1975 (SMR file) indicates that this raised circular area (diam. 38.2m) was enclosed by a bank of earth and stone. It is defined by a scarp (H 0.3-1.6m), which is highest at SE. There is no trace of a fosse and the original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F.
