A large oval enclosure which is overlain by the field banks which are shown on the OS map. This is very ruinous and in places appears to have been robbed. At NH 5250 6357, incorporated into the circuit of the enclosure is a U-shaped feature measuring c. 10.0 by 10.0m. It would appear to be an integral part of the enclosure. Its function is unknown. Visited June 1989.
