| Remains | Mr. H. Strong | The remains of an ancient Camp, | ||||
| (Druidical) | Mr. Wm Short | supposed to be of Druidical origin | ||||
| Mr. A Lowery | it is placed on the N.W. foot of Yeavering | |||||
| Bell and differs much from the generallity | ||||||
| of British Camps. They, generally consisting | ||||||
| of several uniform Ramparts & fosses, whereas | ||||||
| this is a paralellogram, the outside being | ||||||
| faced with large, rude, upright stones – and | ||||||
| the earth evidently scooped out from the | ||||||
| centre of the enclosed space & banked up | ||||||
| against the stone. The central & largest | ||||||
| has two such embankments, and on each side | ||||||
| is a much smaller Camp, but constructed | ||||||
| in the same manner. | ||||||
| It is considered doubtful as to these | ||||||
| two Enclosures being Druidical | ||||||
| Remains – the names are therefore | ||||||
| omitted. | ||||||
| Remains | Mr Wm Short | The remains of another such Camp as | ||||
| (Druidical) | Mr Wm Turnbull | the above, situated on the West side | ||||
| Mr H. Strong | or foot of Yeavering Bell. | |||||
| Robt Young Corporal Royal Engineers | ||||||
