The National Monuments Service's description
Listed in both the SMR (1989) and RMP (1995) and classified 'Earthwork(s)' and 'Earthwork(s) Site' respectively. In pasture, on the gentle W-facing slope of a ridge. A series of small fields is visible in an aerial photograph (ACAP, V227/35-6), some of which are also indicated on the 1914 OS 6-inch map. These fields are levelled and are not visible at ground level. They are likely to be post-1700 AD in date.
