A triangular earthwork known as The Camp, consists of a low broad rampart 35 feet wide by 4 feet high. In the centre of the enclosed area is a low circular mound, about 100 feet across the base and 40 feet at the top, with a shallow trench round it. It may not be defensive and could have been constructed as a fishfarm.
