What is recorded here

On a gentle SSW-facing slope in pasture. Depicted as a circular enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. A slightly raised circular area (diam. 32.1m) defined by a levelled bank of earth and stone (Wth 3.15m; max. H 0.2m). There is no trace of a fosse and the original entrance is not recognisable. Most of the SW quadrant has been destroyed by quarrying. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
