Full Description

At NC 7592 4131 and NC 7589 4133, on a west facing hillside, are two enclosures (A and B). There are no signs of associated cultivation. The enclosures are reduced, but appear to be of similar type; entrances are not evident.
'A' and 'B' are respectively 10m and 15m in diameter within turf walls spread from 2.5-3m and standing on average 0.3m high. The turf walls contrast with the heather covered interior and surrounding ground. A feature of these banks is a central groove which runs round the top.
