NT12NW 33 1200 2961.
(NT 1200 2961) Enclosure (NR)
OS 6" map (1966)
An oval enclosure measures 130 ft (39.6m) by 75 ft (22.9m) internally. The boulder-faced wall has been about 7 ft (2.13m) in thickness, but it is now reduced for the most part to a low stony bank in which several outer facing-stones are visible. The entrance, on the N, measures 4 ft (1.21m) in width and is revetted on either side by an earthfast boulder. Apart from two short banks of uncertain purpose, the interior is featureless.
