What is recorded here

On a NE-facing slope in low-lying pasture. A raised circular area (diam. 25.9m) enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone (H 0.5m max.) with a shallow intervening fosse (Wth 4m; D 0.5m) and an outer bank (H 0.4m). The latter has been levelled from NNW–N–ESE but its outline (Wth 5.3m) is still identifiable in places. A wide break (Wth 5.4m) in the bank at ESE with an accompanying causeway marks the original entrance. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 23 November 2011
