What is recorded here

Situated on a gentle E-facing slope. Depicted as a circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 45m) only on the 1835 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described as a ‘Fort’. It is also faintly visible as a cropmark of a circular area (diam. c. 35m) defined by a single fosse feature on OSI images (1995). See the attached view from OSI images (1995) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload; 19 November 2020
