What is recorded here

Situated on moderate S-facing slope in pasture. Raised roughly circular area (dims. 25m N-S; 27m E-W) enclosed by a bank of earth and stone (Wth. 3-4.4m; int. H 0.9m). No fosse is visible at ground level. The exterior face of the bank has been eroded on its outer face for the majority of its circuit. The interior of the site has been raised to compensate for the underlying natural slope. A break (Wth 2.6m) in the bank at SW marks the position of the original entrance.
