What is recorded here

Located towards the NW end of a NW-SE ridge and at its highest point which was known as Chapel Hill (OS 1835 6-inch map) because of the Roman Catholic chapel at the roadside c. 100m to the N. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30-35m) defined by a single fosse feature was recorded by Joseph McMahon on a drone-mounted camera in August 2018. It is also visible as a cropmark on the OSI aerial images (1995). See the attached view from the NE, courtesy of Joseph McMahon. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 12 September 2018
