CLASS G. 



The works referred to under class G appear in many cases to be the 

 sites of feudal strongholds, or manorial residences ; at the same time 

 it must be borne in mind that, as the late General Pitt-Rivers proved, 

 simple, small, banked and ditched enclosures existed even in the 

 far-away Bronze Age, and, it may be added, at various later periods. 



Though generally simple in form, examples occur with outer 

 courts, or divided enclosures or with ramparting extending beyond 

 the main sites. 



Though usually small in comparison with early and similarly 

 defended works, such as those of classes B or C, some of the works 

 of class G cover an area of several acres.
