On the S-facing crest of a broad NW-SE spur. Circular grass-covered area (diam. 32m N-S; 32m E-W) defined by an overgrown but poached earthen bank (Wth 4.5-5m; int. H 0.8-0.9m; ext. H 2-2.4m,) which is incorporated into a field bank NNW-ENE. It is separated by a fosse (at W: Wth of top 6.6m; Wth of base 2m; D 1.6m) from an outer bank (at W: Wth 3.4m; ext. H 0.65m) SSW-NNW. The fosse is replaced by a berm (Wth 2.3m) SE-SSW and there is an entrance at E. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
