What is recorded here

In level pasture. A raised circular area (diam. 35m) enclosed from SW-N-ENE by a substantial bank of earth and stone (Wth 3.7-4.2m; H 1.2-1.5m) and elsewhere defined by a scarp (H 1.2-1.5m). A report in 1990 (SMR file) recorded a shallow intervening fosse with a low outer bank. These features are no longer visible at ground level. The original entrance is not recognisable.
