What is recorded here

On a slight S-facing slope in gently undulating pasture. Roughly rectangular area (dims. 34m NNW-SSE; 31m ENE-WSW) enclosed by a broad gently sloping earthen scarp (Wth 3m; ext. H 0.35m) with a broad flat-bottomed fosse (Wth at base 3m; overall Wth 6.1m). On the N and E sides the scarped edge is very slight and difficult to trace at ground level. The fosse is almost entirely infilled and barely visible at ground level on the W, N and E sides with modern NNW-ESE orientated field bank extending along the outer edge of the fosse on the E side. The original entrance is not recognisable. The interior slopes slightly facing S and is clear of overgrowth. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
