Full Description
The scarp crest at this location has several minor quarry pits and associated spoil, possibly due to obtain walling stone for the surrounding enclosures. Nearby are several amorphous piles of small clearance stones, Probably dating from the time of the post-medieval enclosure. To the east is a redundant enclosure wall, abandonded when the field layout was modified to exclude a small uneven area.
