Description
On a prominent rise of ground with good views. Ringfort (WM033-059----) located 185m to the E. Circular-shaped area (diam. 43.5m N-S; 43.5m E-W) defined by a substantial earthen bank covered in trees and bushes and wide flat-bottomed fosse with low external bank that appears to have been altered from SSE-S-W-WNW when a trench was dug around the outside of the bank. Causewayed entrance gap (Wth 2.2m) at E, modern gap in outer bank at WNW. A public road running roughly N-S intersects the ringfort on the E side causing damage to the external bank of the monument.
