1. Group of 8 square enclosures of variable size, as recorded on RC oblique air photographs.

2. Two groups of square - subrectangular ditched & banked enclosures, 13 overall (Nprn401522-401534), set on a W-facing ledge on Cefn Morfudd, from 13-40m across, the banks being on average 3.0m wide & 0.8m high, the ditches 2.0m wide & 0.4m deep; two examples show remains of drystone revetting (Nprn401526, 401528), three being counterscarped (Nprn401522-3, 401528): these features, rejected as Roman practice works & appearing to be of no great antiquity although earlier than the current field boundaries, have been suggested to have been 'bee gardens', being similar to examples in the New Forest.
