What is recorded here

In poorly drained, undulating pasture, on a SSE-facing slope. An oval area (dims. c. 40m WNW-ESE; c. 28m NNE-SSW) defined by scarp (Wth 1.2m; H 0.3m), intervening fosse (Wth 3.55m; D 0.3m), external bank (overall Wth 6.45m; Wth on top 3.8m; int. H 0.3m; ext. H 1.3m) from N-SE and reduced to scarp (Wth 0.9m; H 0.9m) in the NW quadrant and an external fosse (Wth 5.9m; D 0.2m) NW-E, which is obscured by overgrowth from E-SE and S-NW and is possibly backfilled SE-S. The inner bank is levelled from W-NNE. There is a modern gap (Wth 2m) in the bank in the N sector. The SW quadrant could not be accessed due to dense overgrowth. An enclosure (TS059-011----) is located c. 80m to N. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 24 September 2013
