Full Description
Earthwork in a figure of eight shape which has been cut through by strip fields. It was constructed on shales on the hillslope above the sewage works; the lower portion sits lower than the main (ringwork?) feature. (1). The precise location of this earthwork is unclear, therefore the approximate field has been plotted on the map. (3).
