What is recorded here

In gently undulating pasture; poorly drained to N and S. Circular area (diam. 17m) defined by an inner bank (Wth 10.3m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 3.05m), fosse (basal Wth 1.2m; overall Wth 10.85m; D 0.7m) and outer bank (Wth 5.6m; int. H 0.85m; ext. H 0.15m). The inner bank is almost reduced to scarp NW-NE and steps outwards at base, possibly due to cattle erosion and slippage over time. The fosse is well defined W-N-SE and traceable yet inconspicuous SE-S-W. Possible remains of low outer bank are best defined NE-SE. Interior appears featureless. Ring-barrow (TS066-123002-) is c. 6-8m to NNE. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
