MSO11609 - Possible post-medieval tree enclosure rings on Bird's Hill (Monument)

Two circular enclosures on Bird's Hill, presumably landscape features belonging to the park at Combe Sydenham. [1-3] Both enclosures are in open parkland with trees on the 1st and 2nd Edition Ordnance Survey maps [4,5] and the Tithe Map [6]. The western exclosure is shown in woodland and the eastern one in fields on the 1962 Ordnance Survey map. [4] The earthwork remains of two post medieval tree rings lie on Bird's Hill, west of Combe Sydenham, at ST 0630 3645 and ST 0677 3645. [8] This record was enhanced as part of the National Record of the Historic Environment to Exmoor National Park Historic Environment Record data transfer project. [9]
