A circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 40m) is depicted only on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a ‘fort’. The bank could be incorporated into a curving field bank SE-SW (Chord c. 30m) but otherwise there is no visible evidence of this monument.

In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
