What is recorded here

On a shelf on an E-facing slope. A raised almost circular area (29m N-S; 28m E-W) enclosed from W-NW-N and from SSE-S-SW by a low bank of earth and stone (Wth 4-6.1m; H 0.45-0.9m) and elsewhere defined by a scarp (H 0.4-1m). At the base of the bank at S there is a shallow fosse (Wth 3.8m; D 0.4m). The original entrance is not recognisable. A possible house site (LF010-021002-) lies within the NE quadrant of the interior.
