What is recorded here

In tillage, recently reseeded, on a gentle S-facing slope. Roughly circular area (dims. 33m N-S; 30m E-W) defined by remains of earthen bank (overall Wth 4.7m; Wth at top 1.1m; int. H 0.25m; ext. H 0.5m) best preserved around E and W arcs. Remains of fosse (overall Wth 4.8m; basal Wth 2m; max D 0.2m) are intermittent due to disturbance by plough. Plough line is very close to fosse and truncates it intermittently, particularly to N and E. Possible remains of a levelled outer bank (overall Wth 2.7m; Wth at top 1.0m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.2m) SE-SW, where spared by plough. Interior is generally level and has a SE-facing slope in SE-sector. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
