What is recorded here
On level, poorly drained pasture. A raised circular area (diam. 33.5m) enclosed from NNE-NE-ENE by a levelled bank of earth and stone (Wth 7m; H 0.2m) and elsewhere defined by a scarp (H 0.5-0.7m). At the base of the scarp at NW is a shallow fosse (Wth 4.5m; D 0.15m). From WSW-W-NW the scarp has been modified and incorporated into a NNW-SSE field boundary. The original entrance is not recognisable.
