What is recorded here
Earthwork described in 1942-3 as following; 'This is a small circular earthen platform surrounded by a fosse. The platform top slopes gently from east to west. The entrance is not recognisable. The maximum height of the platform is 4' 6" [1.37m] and the overall diameter is 84' [26m]. The fosse has disappeared on the east owing to the making of a drain and fence on that side. Situated in wet low-land' (O'Kelly 1942-3, 238-9). Faint cropmark of levelled monument barely visible today on Digital Globe aerial photographs.
