What is recorded here

In fairly level grassland; views good but not extensive, best to S; restricted now by trees to E. This possible moated site is indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as a straight-sided embanked enclosure, diamond-shaped in plan; it is shown on the 1919 edition as an irregular oblong hachured area open to E. It has been levelled. The outline of a slightly raised roughly square (with rounded corners) or subcircular area (21m N−S; 21m E−W), defined by broad low undulation or levelled scarp, can still be traced. The levelled scarp is quite well defined on the S (Wth c. 5m; H 0.7m), W, and N sides, but is barely discernible at E. There is a rath (MA051-004) 80m to SE.
