Not recorded.
Date
January 1978
Description
Field visit in 1978 to the earthworks on The Cloud undertaken as part of research for Volume 1 of the 'The Victoria History of the Counties of England'. The enclosure is not easy to distinguish. The banks are most easily distinguished in the north west. The character of the enclosure suggests that this is not a hillfort (or similar) monument. Thought more likely to be a forestry enclosure.
