Full Description

East-west ridge and furrow, with a headland at the west end and possibly another at the east end where fragments of low linear bank survive. Former field boundary banks, each with associated ditch also run east-west. More complex earthworks are present in the west. Two rectangular hollows in the northern part of the west end are associated with an undulating field surface west of the headland. South of these, two rectangular terraced areas appear to represent the eastern end of crofts. A small rectangular terraced platform extends east from the most southerly of the two. (1)
