On natural ridge which curves around NW-SE, immediately E of a neighbouring house plot boundary where a possible enclosure (TS075-063----) was located. According to local information a 'fort' stood here until levelled in c. 1960. It was described as being a small concave enclosure (diam. c. 20m) defined by trees. A slight depression in the area may be the remains of the enclosure.
