Full Description

Possible circle - possible external ploughed out bank and central pit? (1)
This circle is traversed by a NW-SE lane to the N of which is fresh plough and to the S pasture. There are no surface indications of the bank nor were any finds made in the soil. Topographically the situation is some 60.0m above sea level in a locally elevated position with an extensive all round aspect. Almost certainly a barrow circle. (2)
