Full Description

NH 95 21

Cut by the stone dyke built before 1871, is a circular hollow 7m in diameter. A slight lip or bank over 2m wide by 0.3m high to be seen on the south side of this hollow suggests that this marks the site of a prehistoric roundhouse. This is only a tentative identification.
There are rabbit burrows on the edge of this feature.
Wordsworth 1996, Site 4 (see Hlinked report)
