What is recorded here

In poorly drained, low-lying pasture. A raised subcircular area (c. 35m NW-SE; c. 30m NE-SW) enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone (Wth 4m; H 0.2-0.4m) with fragmentary traces of an external fosse (Wth 2-3m; D 0.1-0.2m). A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded traces of an outer bank at S and at W that are no longer visible at ground level. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F.
