What is recorded here

On a low rise on a W-facing slope. A raised circular area (diam. 38m) defined by a scarp (H 2-2.3m) with a very wide deep intervening fosse (Wth 7.1-8.3m; D 1-1.3m) and an outer bank (Wth 5.8-6m; H 1.7-1.8m). A report in 1975 (SMR file) recorded that the original entrance was at SE. A possible souterrain (LF010-042002-) lies within the interior. Compiled by: Patrick F.
