What is recorded here

Near the bottom of an E-facing pasture slope which forms the E side of a narrow N-S valley. A fairly poorly preserved, almost circular earthen mound (base diams. 49.7m N-S; 47m E-W; surface diams. 23.3m N-S; 20m E-W), highest at W (H 2.9m) and lowest at E and N (H 1.8m). The edges of the mound have been scalloped by small areas of quarrying and there is a lot of nettle growth in the NE sector. Possibly a natural hillock which has been artificially scarped.
