What is recorded here

To the SW of the highest point of a rise in otherwise low-lying pasture. A raised circular area (diam. 28.4m) enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone (Wth 3.6m; H 0.2-0.8m) with a shallow external fosse (Wth 2.9m; D 0.3m). A report in 1975 (SMR file) recorded a low outer bank, which has since been destroyed due to land reclamation. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F.
