What is recorded here

On a moderately steep-sided hilltop (OD c. 150m), on the site of an Early Christian monastery (KD028-049001-) and later, medieval borough (KD028-049----). According to Bradley et al. (1986 vol. 4, 389), the possible line of an ecclesiastical enclosure may be preserved in a curving, but now levelled field boundary (visible on aerial photographs), to the E of a church (KD028-049005-) and graveyard (KD028-049011-), and also in the slightly curving line of the laneway to the N of the green.
