by three ramparts one enclosing the inner | ||||||
area the other two are between the outer | ||||||
side of the fosse and the rampart which | ||||||
surrounds the area, these two ramparts | ||||||
form a fosse. There are evident traces of | ||||||
a gateway on the east side, the southern | ||||||
part of this entrenchment is much defaced, | ||||||
are visible remains of a small defence. | ||||||
