What is recorded here

In rolling pasture. A raised circular area (diam. 50m) enclosed by a much-denuded, low bank of earth and stone (Wth 3.9m; H 0.6m) with a shallow intervening fosse (Wth 3.6m; D 0.55m) and an outer bank (Wth 2.9m; H 0.45m). It is divided into unequal portions by a NW-SE field boundary. The much-larger portion, to the NE , has been levelled and only faint traces of the inner bank are identifiable. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011
