What is recorded here

In pasture, on NNE-facing slope. Sub-circular area (28.8m N-S; 26.5m E-W) enclosed by earthen bank (int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1.7m), best preserved SSW->NNE but lowers as it progresses up-slope NE->SE becoming scarp-like at S (H 0.45m; Wth 2.65m). Bank much denuded by cattle accessing interior, particularly along NE arc. Bank has been quarried out NNE->NE where a depression (D 0.85m; 12m N-S; 10m E-W) extends into N verge of interior. Level interior, under rough grazing.
