Full Description
On a change of slope on moorland covered with old peat-cuttings, is a wasted enclosure. It measures 15.5m in diameter over a bank up to 3m broad and 0.3m high on the NW side, but elsewhere 1-2m broad and 0.2m high; an entrance is not discernible. There is no evidence of stone, and the interior does not appear to have been levelled in any way. It appears most likely to be an old sheepfold.
Surveyed at 1:10,000. Visited by OS (J M) 11 November 1981.
Enclosure. Diameter: 15m. Circular feature formed of banks 3m wide.
R J Mercer, NMRS MS/828/19, 1995
