Full Description
A raised circular feature with an encircling bank which contains large stones, some of which may be in-situ boulders. The internal diameter of the feature is c12m. The bank is 1-1.5m high externally and generally 0.3-0.5m high internally. It has a spread of 2 - 3m. There is a possible entrance, c2m in width in the eastern arc but this may have been caused by heavy forest machinery. The whole site has been grossly trashed by tree planting, felling and reploughing, with furrow marks across the internal area. <1>
