No. Of course not. That is the trap. You want to hide the example, but you still want to use it. Use the example, or stop pretending that you understand it.
On the crest of a ridge in pastureland. Classified by McCaffrey (1952, 143, no. 13) as a circular ‘Earthen fort’ (diam. c. 42.4m) defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. The monument has been ploughed out and, apart from a slight hollow in the field, no visible surface trace survives. (Athy 1914, 138)
