What is recorded here

Situated in pasture and woodland. Bivallate ringfort described in 1971 as a roughly circular-shaped area enclosed by an inner bank, an intervening fosse and an outer bank. The inner and outer banks are visible intermittently. A house site (WM025-126001-) is located within the centre of the interior. The site was previously planted with trees and these have now been felled. Monument visible as a subcircular-shaped univallate earthwork on oblique aerial photographs (CUCAP AOY083) taken 12/07/1966. Monument visible as a roughly circular-shaped, partially tree-planted earthwork on Digital Globe aerial photography. Compiled by Alison McQueen, Vera Rahilly and Caimin O’Brien.
