Historically considered to be a hillfort based on correspondence (Sir W de L Aitchison 1952). The earthworks are now believed to be natural features or the result of quarrying (RCHME field investigation in 1957). Earlier activity on the site is probable as at least three bronze swords have been found here. Not recorded here as a hillfort. Possibly related to Atlas No. 1853
