Roman circus uncovered at Outlane, Huddersfield

The Huddersfield Daily Examiner is carrying a report of the discovery of a long lost 'circus', which was shown on a map from 1854 as a circle, beside the Slack Roman Fort near the village of Outlane. Although the newspaper doesn't seem to know whether to call the find a circus or an amphitheatre the description given of a 'circus' approximately 80metres across does makes it sound like it could possibly be another although larger gyrus such as the one found at the Lunt Roman Fort at Babington near Coventry.
