There is a network of earthen banked fields at the foot of the steep slopes on the SE flank of Down Hill. Sinuous rig, some of which has been subdivided, can be seen within the enclosures. One of the field-banks may overlie a patch of rig, which extends beyond the limits of the enclosures. A small oval enclosure, possibly for stock, abuts the N, upslope, side of one of the field-banks. Some of the field-banks extend into the improved ground to the SE.
