What is recorded here

In pastureland. This is the E example of two adjoining enclosures (see also (GA104-112----)marked on the 1838 edition of the OS 6-inch map. It was roughly subcircular in plan (diam. c. 25m). On the 1933 edition of the map a field wall cuts through the monument from NW to SE. Classified by McCaffrey (1952, 226, no. 138a) as a possible earthen which was in a very ruinous condition. No visible surface trace of either monument now survives. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 17 July 2017
