What is recorded here

Marked as an oval wooded enclosure on the 1839 (dims c. 100m NW-SE; c. 70m NE-SW) and 1925 (dims c. 80m N-S; c. 50m E-W) eds of the OS 6-inch map and situated on a slight N-facing slope with an E-W stream c. 50m to the N. This is an oval area (dims c. 83m N-S; 50m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 2.4m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 1.9m) and outer drain (Wth of top 2.1m; ext. D 1.3m) at E and a bank (Wth c. 2m; int. H 0.3-0.6m) and hedge with an outer drain at W, but the perimeter has been removed NW-NE and SE-SW. This is not known locally as a rath and is probably the remnants of a copse.
