In pasture 60m E of enclosure (LI039-111----). Not depicted on the 1840 ed. OSi 6-inch map. Shown on the 1897 ed. OSi 25-inch map as an irregular-shaped area (dims. 58m NW-SE; 47m NE-SW) possibly indicating a small pond. Truncated at S by field wall running NW-SE. Depicted on Cassini ed. OSi 6-inch map as sub-circular-shaped depression or possibly a quarry or pond(diam. c. 48m) with second depression (36m E-W; 12m N-S) to immediate S. Visible as irregular shaped field enclosure delimited by scrub on OSi orthophoto taken between 2005-12. Outline of earthwork visible as a circular-shaped area delimited by scrub on Google Earth orthoimage dated 14/09/2019. Probably the remains of a post-1700 quarry which has become a pond feature, not the remains of an archaeological monument. See attached Google Earth orthoimages.
