What is recorded here

Towards the bottom of a SE-facing slope. Circular grass-covered area (diam. 32.2m NW-SE; 29.6m NE-SW) sloping down to the SE (H 2m) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (Wth 6-6.4m; int. H 0.7-0.8m; ext. H 2.2-2.3m). The bank is separated by a fosse (Wth of top 9.6-12.3m; Wth of base 2.5m; D 1.3-1.6m) from an overgrown outer bank (Wth 4.4-5m; H 0.2-0.9m), but the inner bank is reduced to a scarp (H 0.9m) SE-S, and the fosse and outer bank are removed ESE-S (max. ext. diam. 52.4m NE-SW). There are modern entrances at NE and NW, but the original entrance cannot be identified. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
