What is recorded here

Located on a slight E-facing slope, on land that might once have been part of the demesne of Maperath House. The faint parchmark of a large circular enclosure (diam. c. 70m N-S; c. 70m E-W) is visible in pasture on Google Earth (02/07/2018). It appears to be defined by a wide inner and a slighter outer fosse, and it was first reported by M. Tunney. See the attached enhanced view from Google Earth (02/07/2018) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 26 July 2022
