Description
NAR SH32NW8
An enclosure noted in 1871 and 1917, is presently obscurred, mutilated and built-over.
A sketch plan of 1817 records an enclosure resting on an angle of steep natural slopes, c.37.5m N-S & 23m NW-SE, otherwise delineated by a crescentic stony bank and one or more ditches.
Present (1975) remains may represent only natural scarps.
