Full Description

{?} A slightly eroded access way through the rampart is the result of a former track, clearly visible as a sharp cut through the bank in 1947 and possibly caused by military vehicles housed in the park during the Second World War.
The unsurveyed disturbed area to the north results from World War II temporary buildings; 1947 air photos show areas of hardstanding, probably building platforms.
