What is recorded here
Within SE-sector of enclosure (TS060-017001-). Access not gained. Impenetrable vegetation in this area of interior. Yellow flags at base of scarp at SE may correspond to a natural spring which may have fed the well. Spring may have originated here as ground very wet underfoot and ground slopes down to S.
