DescriptionEarthworks of an unusual pair of enclosures, surviving on a knoll of higher ground just to the south of the line of the Monk's Trod (NPRN 23712). The earthworks comprise two squared embanked enclosures, c.20m apart, linked by a curving line of bank. Nearby to the east and north are two circular depressions, possibly springs or pits. The whole measures c.53m east-west by 17m north-south. It probably represents an upland settlement or pair of enclosures for stock management. Discovered during RCAHMW aerial reconnaissance on 20th December 2007.
