What is recorded here

On a NE-facing slope in low-lying pasture. A slightly raised circular area (diam. c. 28m) enclosed from W-N-NE by a low bank of earth and stone (Wth 2.4m; H 0.1m) and elsewhere defined by a scarp (H 0.5m). At the exteranl base of the scarp at S are traces of a fosse (Wth 2.5m; D 0.1m). A break (Wth 1.5m) in the bank at W may mark the original entrance. Some outcropping rock is evident within the interior. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 3 December 2011
