The earthwork shown on the Explorer Map at Guiltree Hill is described in the OS name book of 1857. The site is roughly circular about 100 metres across with a protective ditch. The features are still visible but have been smoothed over by centuries of cultivation. It lies on the top of a drumlin with good all-round visibility. This view looks back to the site from further on in the field.
