Thousands of loads of stone were alledged to have been removed from here and 'its area has recently been enclosed in a Rabbit-Warren', presumably after Prichard's visit in 1885. (source Arch. Camb. 1887, 241-252, 157) .
No pillow mounds have been noted on the ground, and there is the possibilty that the rampart was adopted for this purpose.
