What is recorded here

On a S-facing slope in pastureland. Circular rath (D c. 48m), in fair condition, defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. McCaffrey (1952, 268, no. 22) noted an entrance gap at S. This is no longer evident as no visible surface trace of the inner bank survives from SE to S. The outer bank, which is overlain by a field wall, is visible from W through N to E.
