What is recorded here

On a low rise in pasture. Depicted as a circular enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. This monument has been levelled. However, the outline of two banks with an intervening fosse, enclosing a subcircular area (c. 28m N-S; c. 26m E-W), may still be traced. At the perimeter at NW and E are field-clearance cairns. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 11 January 2012
