of the adjacent ground required it but where
the end of the ridge projected to a higher level
towards the N. [North] it did not appear to have been con:

E [East] some 12' below the crest of the scarp and 5' below that
of the counterscarp. Along the edge of the enceint[e]

mound from the SW. [South West]. Within the wood
