What is recorded here

Visible as a circular feature on aerial photograph (CUCAP: K17 W13), and situated on the summit of a hill in an undulating landscape with limestone outcrop. Subcircular grass and scrub-covered area (dims 25.5m NE-SW; 21.5m NW-SE) defined by a grass-covered stone spread (Wth 2.8-4.6m; int. H 0.2-0.45m; ext. H 0.4-0.6m) largely obscured by field stones. There are no visible facing-stones or identifiable original entrance. It is bisected by a NW-SE field wall of an irregular field system creating fields of c. 0.4 ha. associated with lazy-beds.
