Enclosure in Anglesey (Sir Ynys Mon)

"Circular enclosure, first recorded during RCAHMW aerial reconnaissance on 30th March 2000. Comprises denuded broad circular bank in rough ground south of driveway through park.

The linear features may be contemporary with the enclosure. Not investigated on the ground."
