- WM005-014 Concentric enclosure
Description
Situated on a low natural rise surrounded by relatively low-lying gently undulating poorly drained land with good views to the ESE, S and SSW. A circular area (diam. 33m) enclosed by a wide low earthen bank levelled at N and S, and a flat slightly concave berm (Wth 9m) defined by a low earthen bank best preserved from S to W, with an external fosse visible from NE-E. The interior is fairly even and featureless. Total overall diameter of the monument measures approx. 70m. From SSE-S an old laneway depicted on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map skirts the perimeter of the monument. A field boundary running NE-SW transects the perimeter of the site at S. The presence of the encircling slightly concave berm is unusual and suggests that this monument may be classified as a concentric enclosure. Alternatively the surface of the berm is slightly concave and could be the remains of an inner fosse which would suggest a henge-type or large barrow-type monument.
