(SX 5860 6337) A curvilinear bank up to circa 1m wide and 6m long is visible as a stony earthwork on digital images derived from aerial photographs from 2002 onwards.
The bank defines a small D-shaped enclosure up to roughly 3.7m across, abutting the interior of the north-west side of the boundary bank of the enclosure MDV2425 and the north-east edge of an adjacent hut circle recorded as MDV53377.
The visible earthwork is interpreted as the remains of a possible small hut circle of probable Bronze Age. It is one of 8 associated with the larger enclosure MDV2425.
The hut circle has been transcribed as part of enclosure MDV2425.
Richards, A. F., 2020, Cholwich Town settlement MDV2425 records confusion (Personal Comment). SDV150716.
(18/05/2020) Due to confusion over unclean HER records, The South Devon Coast to Dartmoor Aerial Investigation and Mapping Survey project (2019-20), has ascribed information onto incorrect records; see notes field. Record locations have been updated and correct source information added but some of the HER records referred to by the project will be inaccurate.
