Full description
Ordnance Survey Archaeology Division, 1979, SX56SE115 (Ordnance Survey Archaeology Division Card). SDV142824.
‘Small enclosure with a single hut in the north-west corner, attached to contour following wall.’ (Ordnance Survey citing Devon Sites and Monument Record in 1977)
(17/04/1979) At SX 59366213 is a small round prehistoric enclosure with fragmentary walling associated with the nearby huts (SX 56 SE 110). The feature in the north-west corner is very amorphous and may be a fortuitous arrangement of boulders.
Surveyed at 1:10 000 on P.F.D.
