Description
Situated on a slight S-facing slope, in gently undulating pasture. Slightly raised circular area (diam. 37m) enclosed by a low broad bank of earth (Wth 4.4m; int. H 0.45m). At the external foot of the bank is a fosse (Wth 2.5m; D 0.5m). A plantation of 25 year old coniferous trees encroaches into the W side of the interior causing slight damage to the bank and infilling the fosse WSW-NW. Modern field drains link to the fosse at NW, SE and at SW and the fosse has been re-cut as a field drain NW-SW. A break (Wth 2.1m) in the bank at NNE marks the position of the original entrance.
