What is recorded here

In undulating pasture, on N-facing slope. Circular area (27m N-S; 26m E-W) enclosed by earthen bank (int. H 0.3m; ext. H 1.95m) NW->SW, and defined by scarped edge (H 2.35m; Wth 4m) with external fosse (Wth 1.3m) SW->NW. External bank (int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.3m) extant SE->NE, but overlain by field boundary SE->NW so that site occupies SW corner of field. Numerous breaks in inner bank from NE->SE caused by cattle accessing interior. Causeway entrance (Wth 1m) at S. Interior, under pasture, slopes down gently to W.
