What is recorded here

On a prominent rise in rolling countryside. A low circular mound of earth and stone (diam. at base 10.25m; max. H 0.35m) enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone (Wth 4.2m; H 1.05m) with a shallow internal fosse (Wth 3m; D 0.3-0.55m). At the outer foot of the bank is a second narrower fosse (Wth 1.8m; D 0.2m) and, beyond that, an outer bank (Wth 2.2m; H 0.5m). From NE-E-SE the outer bank and fosse have been levelled but their outlines are still identifiable. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F.
