Description

Test pits in 1990 in a 20 m x 30 m area of the enclosure adjacent to the southwest side of the modern house failed to locate any archaeological features, although the pre-19th Century ground surface had survived garden landscaping. Coring of the ditch on the southeast side found circa 0.1 m of sediment over sandstone bedrock.
