In pasture, located on a low knoll, with good views.
This possible monument was included in the SMR (1991) and the RMP (1997) as ‘enclosure’ on the basis of the depiction on 1919 OS 6-inch map of a shallow hachured arc (cord L 30m), curving NW−NE, perhaps indicating the N arc of an enclosure. It is not shown on the 1837 edition.
A slight rise (c. 26m N–S; c. 20m E–W) in ground level is defined at N–SE by a broad, low slope, which appears to be natural. There is a shallow, grassed-over pit or area of disturbance (c. 10m across E−W) at the S end of the rise, and a deep quarry pit (dim. 15-20m) is dug out of the W edge. There is a local tradition of children’s burial ground here, but no trace of burials is evident.
There is an enclosure (MA062-061----) located 80m to NE.
