(NS 9761 7267) Camp (R) (Supposed Roman)
OS 6" map (1922)

A nearly square enclosure on Gormyre Hill, known locally as the "Roman Camp". Its outline is now very faint, consisting of an earthen bank c. 1' high. Nothing has been found in it, and there are no associated traditions.
Name Book 1854

Possibly the structure was no more than a cattle fold.

The remains of a rectangular enclosure, consisting of a low earthen bank, near the summit of Gormyre Hill. It has been built on top of rig-and-furrow and is clearly of later date. Some 80.0m to the NE are the remains of a similar such structure. Neither of these is an antiquity.
