What is recorded here

In rough pastureland. Marked on the 1838 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a roughly subcircular hachured enclosure (c. 28m E-W; c. 25m N-S). On inspection a roughly D-shaped enclosure with a straight N side (L 25m) was noted. It was defined by a drystone field wall (Wth 0.75m) that had collapsed in places. It may mirror the line of the earlier enclosure. There is a children’s burial ground (GA113-051001-) in the interior. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 3 August 2017
