Full Description

{1} A large enclosure measuring 150m in width; it may have sub-divided by a narrow ditch and in the northwest corner there may have been a possible sub enclosure. The west side of the enclosure formed the east side of a droveway or access route. The west side of the droveay was formed by a curvilinear ditch running parallel with the enclosure and then flaring outwards to the south to form a 'funnel' entrance.
