What is recorded here

Situated within a hillfort (LE010-085005-) on a plateau of outcropping rock with panoramic views in all directions. It is located immediately inside the S rampart on the edge of the summit of this plateau. This is a possible kerb circle consisting of 22 contiguous orthostats (H 0.2m) defining a circular area (int. diam. 6.8m), the interior of which today appears as a low turf covered mound. The interior of this monument forms a perfect circle which is too regular to be the result of quarrying. Two hut sites (LE010-085002-/003-) are located 30m to the N while a circular quarry feature (LE010-085001-) is 23m to the NNE.
